Gujarat Titans (GT) will meet Mumbai Indians (MI) in the ninth match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season on Saturday, March 29th. The clash between the two heavyweights will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad and is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST.

Gujarat Titans began their campaign strong but fell short to close out their first game of the season. They will be eager to bounce back and secure their first win.

    Similarly, Mumbai Indians suffered a comprehensive defeat against Chennai in their season opener. They would like to put the setback away and open their points tally in their trip to Ahmedabad.

    Here are the top three captain and vice-captain choices for GT vs MI match 9 of IPL 2025.

     3. Jos Buttler

    Why Will Jos Buttler Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

    Jos Buttler will be one of the first names in fantasy XI ahead of this game. The keeper-batter has an incredible record against Mumbai Indians in IPL, scoring 552 runs at an average above 55 and a strike-rate around 144 which also includes 4 half-centuries and a century.

    Moreover, Buttler loves batting in Ahmedabad. His numbers in the venue speaks for himself and we saw it once again in GT’s opening game against Punjab in Ahmedabad. Overall, he has 199 IPL runs in Ahmedabad at an average of 66.3 and a strike-rate of 149.6.

    2. Suryakumar Yadav

    Suryakumar Yadav hasn't been at his best lately. Despite his poor run of form, Suryakumar is expected to come good in this match as it's very difficult to keep quiet a player like him. He will be crucial for MI in the middle-overs with the kind of bowling GT possesses.

    Looking at his past records, Suryakumar loves playing against Gujarat as he is one of the highest run scorer in this fixture - 200 runs at an average of 66.66 and 181.81 strike-rate. In addition, he had a great time playing in Ahmedabad which makes him one of the top fantasy choices ahead of this game.

    1. Shubman Gill

    Why Will Shubman Gill Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-captain?

    Gill has amassed a total of 934 runs at an average of 66.71 and a strike-rate of 165.01 while playing for GT at their home venue. Besides, his has an impressive record against Mumbai Indians since joining Gujarat Titans in 2022 - 274 runs at an average of 54.80 and a strike-rate of 170.18.
