MI Vs GT: Pitch Report
The Wankhede track has fulfilled its billing as a batter’s haven this season. The pitch provides a uniform bounce and fast outfield, inviting stroke play. Mumbai Indians chased down 177 in 15.4 overs against Chennai Super Kings in the previous two games here and amassed a huge 215/7 against Lucknow Super Giants.

Seamers may be able to get some early swing under lights, particularly with the new ball, but it’s the batters who will take over once the ball becomes a little older. Spinners will have to depend upon variation and intelligent bowling to remain in the game on this flat pitch.
MI Vs GT: Toss Strategy
At Wankhede, the toss may be decisive. With the team’s history at the venue and the effect of dew in night games, chasing has more often than not been the more desirable option. Teams winning the toss will want to bowl first, hoping to limit the opponent to a reasonable score and then cash in on the conditions in the dark.
