Gujarat Titans lost their last two matches after a good streak of wins. They lost the last match against Chennai Super Kings by 83 runs. Prasidh Krishna took two wickets, while Sai Sudharsan scored the most runs for Gujarat Titans.
Mumbai Indians won three out of their last five matches. They lost the last match to Punjab Kings by seven wickets. Suryakumar Yadav did well in that match for Mumbai Indians, and Mitchell Santner took two wickets.
The pitch of Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium in Mullanpur is usually considered to be batting-friendly where runs are scored but spinners also get some advantage. So far 9 matches have been played here in which the team batting first has won 5 times.
The average score of the first innings is 170. In the first two matches of this season, scores of 200+ were made but in the last match PBKS defended only 111, which shows that the pitch can be unpredictable. Overall, it is good for batting but spinners can slow down the game in the middle of the match.
Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians have a strong rivalry in IPL history. They have played seven head-to-head matches against each other. Out of these seven matches, Gujarat Titans have won five games, while Mumbai Indians have won just two. Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians played two matches against each other this season. Gujarat Titans won both the matches by 36 runs and three wickets.

Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya have faced each other in four IPL seasons. Hardik has got Shubman out four times. Shubman has scored only 19 runs in 23 balls againt Hardik. He has hit just one four and one six. His strike rate is 82.6, which means he scores slowly against Hardik.
Rohit Sharma has played against Rashid Khan in many IPL seasons. He has scored 35 runs in 32 balls but has been out four times. He has hit three fours and one six. Rashid has troubled Rohit a lot, and his average against him is only 8.8, which means he gets out quickly.
Suryakumar has scored 63 runs in 43 balls and got out 2 times. He played 18 dot balls, hit 9 fours and 2 sixes. Strike rate is 146.5 and average is 31.5.
Shubman Gill is the main man for Gujarat Titans, and he’ll have to step up in this game after an average performance in the last couple of games. He scored 13 runs in the last match against CSK and 35 before that against Lucknow Super Giants. He is expected to do well in this game against Mumbai Indians. However, he will have to give respect to Hardik Pandya, as Hardik has dismissed him four times in just 23 balls.
Sai Sudharsan is the top player for Gujarat Titans this season and is currently the Orange Cap holder. He is very strong with his orthodox batting technique. He usually scores at a run-a-ball rate in each match, which provides you base points. He has scored 679 runs in 14 games this season, with an average of 52.23. Sai has one hundred and five fifties this season.
Suryakumar Yadav will be important in this match with the form he is in this season. He has scored a total of 640 runs in 14 matches, with a best score of 73* against the Delhi Capitals. Surya has an average of 71.11 this season, which is the highest among players who have scored more than 500 runs. He is an important pick for this match.
Hardik Pandya is the captain of Mumbai Indians and is one of their most valuable players. He will be important in this match for his team and your fantasy teams. Hardik Pandya has a knack for doing well against Gujarat Titans in the IPL. He has done well against them in the past and could do so again in this IPL. He has dismissed Shubman Gill four times in just 23 balls. He can be very dangerous in this match.
Shahrukh Khan is a great player who has the authority and power to take the aerial route in the game. He can bowl as well, which he did in the last game against Chennai Super Kings, picking up one wicket. He also scored a fifty in the match before CSK, against Lucknow Super Giants. He is a good budget pick for this match.
Tilak Varma will play up the order at number four in this match, as Mumbai Indians will not have Will Jacks and will also be missing Ryan Rickelton. This indicates that Tilak Varma will be playing higher in the batting order, and his caliber needs no introduction. He will be a good pick in this match as well.
Rahul Tewatia is a key finisher for Gujarat Titans, but this season he hasn't had much to do since the top order has been performing well in almost every match. He bats in the lower middle order and usually handles the finishing role for the team. While his role is important for Gujarat, it doesn’t add much value for fantasy users. You can avoid picking him in your Dream11 team.
Naman Dhir has played a few decent knocks this season. Whenever he gets a chance, he scores some runs, but he usually comes in to bat lower down the order. It's not certain if Dhir will even get a chance to bat. He’s a bit of a risky pick, so you can try him in Grand League teams, but it's safer to avoid him in your main team.
