Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans will be combating against each other for the second time in the ongoing 16th season of the Indian Premier League tomorrow. First-ever match between these two teams at the Wankhede Stadium, it will be played over a couple of weeks after their first IPL 2023 match.

Having played only two matches against one another thus far, both the teams have ended up on the winning side once in the past. A clash between two out of the Top Three teams on the points table this season should be fascinating enough for fans to be entertained on a Friday night.
Speaking of their last clash, defending champions GT had thumped the most successful team in the IPL by a 55-run margin at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Chasing a 208-run target, all the visitors were able to manage was a lacklustre 152/9.
