GT vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis The IPL 2025 playoffs are here, and Gujarat Titans are all set to face Mumbai Indians in Mullanpur this Friday in the Eliminator. It’s do-or-die territory—whoever loses is out of the tournament. The winner, on the other hand, moves on to Qualifier 2 to take on the loser of Qualifier 1. Both sides have had ups and downs this season, but they’ve also shown they can beat anyone when things click. Expect a fierce contest in this Eliminator that could easily go down to the wire. TEAMS PREVIEW Gujarat Titans Preview After a strong run through most of the season, where Gujarat Titans kept a tight grip on the top two spots, their momentum took a hit in the closing stretch. They suffered two lopsided losses — an 83-run hammering at the hands of Chennai Super Kings and a 33-run defeat to Lucknow Super Giants. Those setbacks dropped them to third in the standings, meaning they now have to go through the Eliminator. One more bad game, and their campaign ends there. Outside of those two off days, Gujarat have been one of the more dependable sides in IPL 2025. They’ve generally struck the right balance in most departments. Their top order — Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler — has done most of the heavy lifting, each going past the 500-run mark this season. But with Buttler unavailable for the playoffs due to international duty, Gujarat have lost a major piece of their lineup. Kusal Mendis from Sri Lanka is expected to step in. He may not be as explosive as Buttler, but he’s someone who can steady the middle overs if needed. Lower down, Sherfane Rutherford has quietly delivered value, scoring 267 runs in 10 innings at a strike rate of 157. Shahrukh Khan, too, has shown that he can dig the team out if the top order fails. The bowling attack has been mostly steady this season, though the last two games have exposed a few issues. Even so, the team will be counting on Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna, who have combined for 38 wickets, to get early inroads. Sai Kishore has chipped in with 17 wickets, even if his economy is on the higher side at 9 per over. Rashid Khan hasn’t had the kind of season GT would’ve hoped for, and that inconsistency could become a problem again. Washington Sundar might be brought in to replace Arshad Khan, who has struggled badly with the ball and been far too expensive. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians were within touching distance of a top-two finish after stringing together seven wins in eight games. But a 7-wicket defeat to Punjab Kings in their final league match kept them to fourth. Still, that’s quite the turnaround for MI, considering they dropped three of their first four games. The five-time champions are back in the playoffs and, as always, know how to handle the pressure when it counts. As they head into the knockouts, though, they’ll have to do without Ryan Rickelton and Will Jacks. Both are heading back for international duties, and that’s a big blow to their top order. The duo played a big role in giving MI strong starts. In their place, Jonny Bairstow and Charith Asalanka have been brought in. Bairstow knows the league well and if he can click with Rohit Sharma early on, MI could be in business. Jacks missing out also means a likely shift for Tilak Varma, who’s expected to move up to number three—his natural slot. He’s spent most of the season down at five, where he hasn’t really looked settled. A move back up could help him find his rhythm. One area where Mumbai have come alive is the middle-order. Suryakumar Yadav’s been a rampaging force—640 runs from 14 matches at an average north of 70 and a strike rate around 170. His last two innings—57 off 29 and an unbeaten 73 from 43—suggest he’ll be a real threat to Gujarat in the Eliminator. Lower down, Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir have chipped in at crucial moments. Weather Conditions Mullanpur, like many pitches across India, offers a good setup for T20s. Batters who take a few deliveries to settle in can cash in later. There’s something in it for the bowlers too—seamers might get early movement with the new ball, and spinners should find some grip through the middle overs. The weather in Chandigarh is expected to be hot and dry. But with no rain on the radar, a full match is on the cards. GT vs MI Pitch Report Teams batting first at Mullanpur in the IPL tend to average around 170. Earlier this season, Punjab Kings put up the highest total at the ground—219 for 6—against Chennai Super Kings, a game they won by 18 runs. The pitch has played well for batters, and that trend should continue. Both sides will likely be aiming for something in the 210 range to feel they’ve given themselves a solid cushion. Toss: To Bat At Mullanpur in IPL 2025, three out of the four games have gone in favor of the side that batted first. Plus, given this is a knockout, choosing to bat first feels like the more reliable option.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 29,Thursday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 The last time these two sides met in IPL 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru registered an emphatic 7-wicket win against Punjab Kings. Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PBKS vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis It’s playoff time in IPL 2025, and the first big clash is set—Punjab Kings (PKBS) take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Qualifier 1 this Thursday at Mullanpur. Both teams finished at the top of the table in the group stage, and the winner here will head straight to the final on June 3. The losing side won’t be out just yet—they’ll go on to play the Eliminator winner in Qualifier 2 at Ahmedabad, with a second chance to reach the final. The final stretch of IPL 2025 is shaping up to be intense. TEAMS PREVIEW Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings have been steady all season, grinding out nine wins from 14 matches to finish on top of the standoings. This is their best run since 2014, the last time they reached the finals. Fans will be hoping they can finally take it all the way this time. Punjab have got the pieces to make that happen, and they’ve used them well throughout the tournament. Their batting unit runs deep, and different players have stepped up when needed. Prabhsimran Singh (499 runs in 14 innings) and Priyansh Arya (424 runs in 14 innings) have been a reliable opening pair, setting the tone early. Punjab will be counting on at least one of them to get going again. Shreyas Iyer has held the middle together with poise, scoring 514 runs from 14 matches at a strike rate of 172. He’s been steady when things get tense and will be central to their plans again. Nehal Wadhera hasn’t put up huge scores, but his quickfire knocks at a strike rate around 153 have made a difference in tight spots. Marcus Stoinis and Josh Inglis have been handy contributors too. Stoinis has been used at the back end to finish things off, while Inglis has slotted in at number three or four, playing with urgency. His 73 off 42 against Mumbai was a standout and showed his ability to turn the momentum of a game quickly. Shashank Singh has also stood up late in matches, keeping calm under pressure and closing out a few tough games. One major setback is the absence of Marco Jansen, who won’t be around for the playoffs due to national commitments. That puts the spotlight on Kyle Jamieson. He’s had issues with conceding too many runs, but now he’ll have to step up and take more control. Yuzvendra Chahal could be back after missing the last two games with a minor injury. His return would bring experience and the ability to break partnerships when it matters most. If Chahal gets into rhythm alongside Arshdeep and Harpreet Brar, Punjab will have a real chance to punch through in Qualifier 1. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB have looked terrific all season and wrapped up their group stage with a statement win—chasing down 228 against Lucknow Super Giants, the third-biggest chase ever pulled off in the IPL. That win helped them secure a top-two finish, which will now give them two shots to reach the final. Their batting and bowling units have both held up well. Virat Kohli has done the heavy lifting with the bat, scoring 602 runs in 14 innings at an average of 60.20 and a strike rate of 148. He’s notched up eight fifties, including one in the last game, and continues to look dependable. Phil Salt hasn’t stacked up huge scores, but he gets off the blocks fast and usually gives the innings early momentum. Skipper Rajat Patidar, dealing with fitness issues in recent games, has still managed 271 runs in 12 innings at a strike rate of 140.41, contributing in key moments. RCB have also had fresh faces step up, with Mayank Agarawal and Jitesh Sharma turning heads recently. Mayank has chipped in with some quickfire cameos to keep things ticking in the middle-order, while Jitesh came through big time in the last match against LSG, hammering 85* off 33 balls to seal that mammoth chase. Down the order, they’ll be leaning on Romario Shepherd and Tim David for power late in the innings. David, expected to return for the playoffs after a short injury layoff, could be critical in the final stretch. RCB are also bolstered by the return of Josh Hazlewood, who’s been the most dependable name with the ball this season—snagging 18 wickets in 10 games. Add in the experience of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Krunal Pandya, and there’s depth in the attack. The concern will be around Yash Dayal and Suyash Sharma, who’ve been on the receiving end too often and may be vulnerable under pressure. Weather Conditions The surface at Mullanpur is well-suited for T20 cricket. Batters who get their eye in early should be able to put up a good score. Seamers could get some early swing with the new ball, while spinners might find the pitch helpful once the powerplay is done. Chandigarh’s forecast points to a dry, hot day with zero threat of rain. That means we’re in for a complete game. PBKS vs RCB Pitch Report The average score batting first at Mullanpur in the IPL is 170. Punjab Kings hold the top score at this venue so far—219 for 6 against Chennai Super Kings earlier in the season. The surface has generally offered a lot to batters, so another high-scoring match is likely. Both teams will be eyeing 210 as a total that gives them breathing room. Toss: To Bat Three of the four matches played at…

Lucknow Super Giants will be up against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where the two teams will have different goals. The Lucknow Super Giants defeated the Gujarat Titans in their last game and shall look to end the season on a high. RCB lost to the Sunrisers Hyderabad, and the team will look to recover and build momentum ahead of the next round. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have done well this season. The side has won the last four out of five games, and their batsmen are in excellent form. The side will look to leverage its strengths in this game and win. The Lucknow Super Giants haven’t been in good form, and despite their win in the last game, the team has struggled with consistency. It remains to be seen if the Super Giants can surprise the Royal Challengers. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Rishab Pant’s team showed what it is capable of in the last game against the Gujarat Titans. In a game where the side executed its plans perfectly, they won by 33 runs. However, the team struck form too late and is out of contention for the playoffs. It is their last game this season, and Pant and his men would like to sign off with a big win. Mitchell Marsh hit a match-winning hundred in the last game, and the team expects him to deliver a good start along with Aiden Markram. Nicholas Pooran is an aggressive player and must build partnerships with Pant and Ayush Badoni in the middle order. The team expects a strong show in the lower middle order from Abdul Samad, Himmat Singh, and Shahbaz Ahmed. The bowling attack has struggled in most games. Akash Deep and Akash Maharaj Singh must get early breakthroughs as the Royal Challengers have a strong batting lineup. William O’Rourke and Avesh Khan will look to keep the scoring in check in the middle overs. The team will expect a strong show in the supporting role from Shahbaz Ahmed and Badoni. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar’s team experimented a bit in their last game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad and paid the price. The side allowed SRH to put up a big total and then lost the game from a position of strength. They are already in the playoffs, and Patidar would like to use the last game to build momentum and finish Top 2 on the points table to enjoy the extra cushion in the playoffs. Virat Kohli and Philip Salt have been in phenomenal form at the top, and the team expects the pair to deliver an electrifying start. Mayank Agarwal must steer the innings in the middle order and add runs with Rajat Patidar and Jitesh Sharma. The team expects Romario Shepherd, Tim David, and Krunal Pandya to deliver the goods in the lower middle order after failing in the last game. The bowling attack struggled in the last game, and the team expects early wickets from Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal to put the team in a strong position. The team expects a good show from Lungi Ngidi and Suyash Sharma in the middle overs. Krunal Pandya and Romario Shepherd must use their experience in the supporting role, as LSG has a strong batting lineup. Weather Conditions We expect warm and dry weather in Lucknow. We expect a flat surface where the ball would come to the bat nicely, allowing batters to play their strokes easily. The ball will turn sharply on this track. The average first innings total is 167 runs, and the team batting first will need 200 on the board. LSG vs RCB Pitch Report Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, is a good ground for batsmen who are selective with stroke-making. The ball stops on the batsmen occasionally, and the spinners have done well at this venue. The straight boundaries are long, so batsmen must time their shots well at this venue. Toss: To Bowl The side chasing the score in this venue won the last four out of five games. We have seen big scores, and the excellent wicket makes it a good surface to chase. The side that wins the toss in this game will look to use the early conditions and opt to bowl first.
