The Gujarat Titans posted a mammoth total of 196/8 against the Mumbai Indians at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday. Sai Sudharsan was star of the show for Gujarat Titans, as he played a fiery knock of 63 runs off just 41 balls. Mumbai Indians would be chasing a target of 197 runs.

Mumbai Indians got back in the game when Hardik Pandya got the crucial breakthrough of Gujarat Titans' skipper Shubman Gill who scored 38 runs off just 27 deliveries. Despite Pandya's efforts, the Mumbai Indians' fielding has been sloppy throughout the game. Several misfields and dropped catches have given the Gujarat Titans' batsmen a lifeline, allowing them to build a strong platform.

Gujarat Titans got off to a flying start in their first innings against Mumbai Indians at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, thanks to a solid opening partnership between Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill. The duo's impressive batting display set the tone for the Titans' innings, with the team scoring 66 runs without losing a wicket in 6 overs.

Gujarat Titans' strong start

The Narendra Modi Stadium, known for its batting-friendly conditions, lived up to its reputation, with the Titans' batsmen taking advantage of the favorable pitch. The stadium has historically favored teams chasing, with 20 wins out of 36 matches going to the team batting second.

Mumbai Indians' bowling unit, led by captain Hardik Pandya, faced an uphill task in containing the Titans' batsmen. The team's decision to bowl first after winning the toss seemed to backfire initially, as Sudharsan and Gill took the attack to the Mumbai bowlers.

The Titans' strong start has set the stage for an exciting contest, with Mumbai Indians needing to come up with a solid batting display to match the Titans' total.
