Pitch Report
Captains
Hardik Pandya MI | bat
Hardik Pandya is back with MI, this time around as the captain. He will be playing as a finisher in MI, which is his stronghold in T20 cricket. He can be handy as a bowler by delivering some overs in the powerplay overs.
David Miller GT | bat
David Miller has been in good form in the last 2-3 season in the IPL. The star batter can win matches on his own. Given the absence of some key players, Miller’s role will be crucial for the success of Titans in the match and throughout the league.
Ishan Kishan MI | wk
Ishan Kishan has been out of action in the last three months. However, the star player would be willing to start the IPL 2024 on a good note. Kishan is handy as a wicket keeper and can score runs at the top for MI.
Top
Jasprit Bumrah MI | BOWL
Jasprit Bumrah did not take part in the IPL 2023 due to an injury. The star bowler would be raring to go come the 17th edition of the league. The right-arm pacer is arguably the best bowler in the world and T20 is his best format.
Sai Sudharsan GT | BAT
Sai Sudarshan is a prodigy who is regarded to be the future of cricket. It is at the same venue in Ahmedabad, where he smashed an impressive 96 in the final of the IPL 2023 against CSK. The youngster is continued to take off from where he left the last season.
Budget
Umesh Yadav GT | bowl
Umesh Yadav did not get enough opportunities in the IPL 2023. He was released by KKR and picked by GT in the IPL 2024. Given the absence of Mohammed Shami, Yadav will be crucial in the powerplay overs to claim wickets for GT.
Akash Mandwaal MI | bowl
Akash Madhwal was a revelation in the IPL 2023. The emerging bowler was brilliant at the death and made a name for himself. He would be hoping to perform well alongside Bumrah, which would be worth watching.
