The Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) is now down to its business end; we are down the last two matches of the tournament. After hammering the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in Eliminator, Mumbai Indians (MI) will be playing against the defending champions, Gujarat Titans (GT), in Qualifier 2 of the tournament. The match will be taking place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday, 27th May, at 7:30 PM IST.
The defending champions, Gujarat Titans (GT), were in a role during the league stage of the tournament. They managed to top the table after winning 10 of their 14 matches. However, the Hardik Pandya-led side failed to retain their form against CSK in Qualifier 1, losing the match by 15 runs. They will now have a second shot at qualifying for the summit clash as they face the most successful team of IPL, Mumbai Indians.

The Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, have had a dicey run in the league stages of the tournament. They lost their first few games but peaked at the right time, and courtesy of GT's win against Royal Challengers Bangalore, they made it to the playoffs. Come the time when it matters the most, Mumbai Indians displayed their pedigree. Rohit Sharma and his men steam rolled over the Lucknow Super Giants and won the match by 82 runs. Now, they have made it to Qualifier 2 and are just a step away from playing in another IPL final, the playing ground of the five-time champions.
