🔷 Mumbai Indians (MI), despite their star-studded lineup with Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya, have struggled for consistency. Their bowling attack, spearheaded by Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult, is formidable, but MI’s middle-order struggles have cost them crucial games. They need a strong collective effort to turn things around.

Last Year’s Performance Summary (IPL 2024)
🔶 Gujarat Titans (GT) had a mixed IPL 2024 campaign, showing flashes of brilliance but struggling with consistency. Shubman Gill led from the front with the bat, while Jos Buttler provided explosive starts. Rashid Khan and Mohammed Siraj were key figures in the bowling department, keeping GT competitive in crucial moments. However, their middle-order inconsistencies and inability to close out tight games led to their early elimination from the playoffs.
🔷 Mumbai Indians (MI) endured a disappointing IPL 2024 season, failing to find rhythm throughout the tournament. Despite strong performances from Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma, their batting lacked depth and consistency. Hardik Pandya’s leadership faced scrutiny, and while Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult were effective with the ball, MI struggled to defend totals. Their lack of a reliable spin attack and misfiring all-rounders resulted in an early exit from the competition.
