MI vs GT, Match 57, IPL 2023

Gujarat Titans won the toss and opted to bowl first at the Wankhede

Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan got MI off to a blazing start, with the captain showing signs of form in a quickfire 29

Rashid Khan got rid of Kishan and Rohit in the first over after the powerplay, and went on to take two more wickets - an outstanding spell of 4-30 amidst the run-fest

However, Suryakumar Yadav feat. Vishnu Vinod, had other ideas, clubbing the bowling to all parts (barring Rashid)

After scoring his fifty off 32 balls, SKY scored his second fifty off just 17 balls, reaching his maiden IPL hundred in 49 deliveries to lift MI to 218-5

The GT run-chase was off to a disastrous start, courtesy Akash Madhwal, who got rid of the openers early, while Behrendorff picked up the wicket of Pandya. All three of them fell in the powerplay

Rahul Tewatia and David Miller put together a stand of 45 and got Gujarat to 100...

...but they were both dismissed off consecutive balls to put the nail on the coffin

In an unexpected turn of events, Rashid Khan struck crucial blows and walloped ten sixes in his 32-ball 79, getting Gujarat Titans close and only ruling them out theoretically in the 19th over, giving their net run-rate a much-needed boost. The Titans maintained their top spot despite this loss.
