The Gujarat Titans team (IPLT20.com)
The 35th match of the on-going Indian Premier League, is all set to witness the intense clash of defending and five-time champions, Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians at the Narendra Modi Stadium on 25 April at 7:30 pm.
Mumbai Indians recently suffered a 'stump-breaking' loss against Punjab Kings. The match finally saw the return of vintage Suryakumar Yadav who scored 57 off 26 balls and exceptional knocks by Cameron Green (67 off 43) and even captain Rohit Sharma (44 off 27). Although, they were able to chase down to 201 runs, Punjab's pride and shine, Arshdeep Singh did not let the hosts breach past them and his 4 wickets sealed them a win.
Gujarat Titans on the other hand is running high on spirit after securing their fourth win of the season against Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana stadium. Even though, the team put up a low score of 135 runs on the board after Shubman Gill departed with zero runs in the bag, Pandya & Co. managed to stay afoot and defend their total. The match saw Wriddhiman Saha who scored 47 off 37 guide the innings along with Hardik Pandya (66 off 50) after the disheartening early wicket of Shubman Gill.
Having played six games each, both the teams have been able to find their rhythm amidst all the ups and downs. Line-up at the Motera stadium would definitely be exciting and it is truly a must-witness match.

Although, Gujarat has incurred back-to-back losses at home. They have been successful at chasing and even defending, a witness to this is their most recent match against LSG. They have a solid bowling line-up with likes of Mohit Sharma, M.Shami and even Rashid Khan unlike Mumbai Indians, who are struggling with their bowling attack at present. This puts the hosts in a strong position for the match.
