The Mumbai Indians (MI) are getting ready to face Gujarat Titans (GT) in a crucial IPL 2025 match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday, May 6. However, just like the previous day’s match between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Gujarat Titans which was called off due to rain, this match too faces the threat of bad weather. 

With both the teams looking for a win in order to stay in the IPL playoffs race, this match is important for them to play. So, take a look at the weather update.

The weather forecast for Mumbai shows signs of trouble. According to Accuweather, there’s a high chance of rain just before the match begins, especially between 4 PM and 6 PM. There are also chances of thunderstorms later in the evening, which could disturb the match. 

The temperature is expected to stay around 27°C, but due to humidity, it might feel like 31°C. Winds may blow at around 13 km/h with strong gusts going up to 46 km/h. Cloud cover is expected to be thick, and rainfall of about 1.2 mm is likely.

Even though the forecast isn’t promising, there’s still hope. If rain interrupts the match, it might only cause a delay. A shortened match is still possible and can produce a result, even if a full 20-over game cannot be played. So while there’s a chance of disruption, a complete washout is not guaranteed.

Playoff Chances For Mumbai Indians And Gujarat Titans 

This match holds great importance for both MI and GT. Currently, both teams have 14 points and are sitting in the third and fourth positions on the points table. However, Gujarat Titans have the upper hand as they’ve played one match less. 

A win here would bring either team one step closer to confirming a spot in the playoffs. On the other hand, the team that loses will still have a chance to qualify but may struggle to finish in the top two, which adds extra pressure for their upcoming games.

It’s also worth remembering that Gujarat Titans had defeated MI earlier in the season by 33 runs in the reverse fixture played in Ahmedabad. Fans will be hoping for a full game, but the weather might have other plans.
