MI vs GT: Match Preview

Gujarat would like to register another win while on top

GT captain Hardik Pandya told that against Punjab he had deliberately decided to bat first after winning the toss. Actually, I wanted to see how his players perform in difficult situations. The result was that Punjab chased the target before 16 overs. However, Hardik later said that his team would learn from this match and perform better in the upcoming matches.

Rahul Tewatia is a brilliant match finisher but when the team comes out to bat first, his bat does not show anything special. Mohammed Shami had taken 3 wickets in the power play for the first time at the beginning of the season, but after that gradually the edge seems to be disappearing from his balls. Liam Livingstone had hit hard during his bowling and also hit a smashing six of 117 meters. Shami has to bring consistency in his performance from him.

Mumbai may try bench-strength

There is nothing left for Mumbai Indians to get in this competition. Rohit has already indicated that players who don't got a chance to play till now, will also be given the opportunity. From here, Mumbai can try players who can become an important part of the playing XI in the coming years.
