Match 5 of the ongoing IPL 2024 will see Gujarat Titans facing off against Mumbai Indians (GT vs MI) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, March 24. This clash is highly anticipated throughout the tournament because of the big move of Hardik Pandya who shifted base to Mumbai.
Gujarat Titans made it to the IPL final in 2023 with Hardik Pandya as their captain but fell short against Chennai Super Kings. The team will now be led by Indian star batter Shubman Gill who has promised fans that the ‘Gujarat Titans way’ will be the same as the last two years.
Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians, now under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, aim to secure their sixth title. Pandya, replacing Rohit Sharma as captain, is eager to lead his team to success after being eliminated by Gujarat in the IPL 2023.
