GT vs MI IPL 2024: In an electrifying encounter at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat Titans will face off against Mumbai Indians in the opening match of IPL 2024. The last time these two teams clashed was in the qualifiers last season, where Gujarat Titans delivered a resounding defeat to the five-time IPL champions.
Hardik Pandya, who led Gujarat Titans last season, has now assumed the captaincy of Mumbai Indians. Making his comeback to competitive cricket after sustaining an ankle injury in last year's 50-over World Cup, Pandya carries the weight of proving himself in this IPL season, aiming to solidify his spot in India's squad for the 2024 T20 World Cup in June.
However, Mumbai Indians are grappling with several injury concerns. Pacers Jason Behrendorff and Dilshan Madhushanka have already been ruled out of the tournament, while star batsman Suryakumar Yadav awaits fitness clearance from the NCA. Additionally, all-rounder Gerald Coetzee is likely to be sidelined in the initial stages of the tournament due to a groin injury.
Newly appointed captain Shubman Gill will strive to maintain the consistency that Gujarat Titans have displayed in their first two IPL seasons
