IPL 2025 Mumbai Indians (MI) vs Gujarat Titans (GT) Match 56 Best Playing 11

Top-of-the-table clash in our Mumbai Indians (MI) vs Gujarat Titans (GT) match 56 best Playing 11 for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. 

It’s match number 56 in the TATA IPL 2025, and we have the top-of-the-table clash as the Mumbai Indians take on the Gujarat Titans in their home den. Both teams are at the doorsteps of the IPL 2025 Playoffs with 7 wins each. A win from here will almost confirm their qualification given their superior NRR. However, a loss won’t be a bad outcome, especially for the Gujarat Titans team, who have played a match less.

It has been a phenomenal run of play from the Mumbai Indians team having registered 6 wins in a row now. The influx of Jasprit Bumrah combined with the form of all their batters have changed the momentum completely for the MI team, who had started on a poor note this season. But as we enter the business of the tournament, the MI team is looking invincible, and no matter who the opponent is, they are looking strong.

Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, are riding heavily on the form of their resilient top-order of Jos Buttler, Shubman Gill, and Sai Sudharsan. They undoubtedly have the best top-order in the competition, and with them running into the rampant MI bowling attack, it promises to be a mouth-watering contest. The middle-order is yet to be tested for the GT team, and before the Playoffs, the upcoming 3-4 matches will be the ideal time to test them. 

Key Match Details

Tournament: Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025

Match Details: Match 56 – MI vs GT 

Where: Mumbai

When: May 06, 2025, 7:30 pm IST

Both teams are batting heavy, and that promises to be an exciting contest at the Wankhede Stadium. The last few matches at Wankhede have seen Mumbai Indians scoring runs in plenty. While the opposition hasn’t had the best of outings here with the bat, the same won’t be applicable to Gujarat Titans, unless their top-order has the worst day possible. Whatever the case, expect a run feast once again if Mumbai Indians bat first. 

IPL 2025 Updated Squad Players List for Mumbai Indians (MI)

Batters: Bevon Jackobs (o), Tilak Varma, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav & Shrijith Krishnan

WKs: Robin Minz & Ryan Rickelton (o)

All-rounders: Arjun Tendulkar, Corbin Bosch (o), Mitchell Santner (o), Naman Dhir, Raj Bawa, Hardik Pandya (c) & Will Jacks (o)

Bowlers: Ashwani Kumar, Deepak Chahar, Jasprit Bumrah, Karn Sharma, Mujeeb ur Rahman (o), Reece Topley (o), Satyanayarana Raju, Trent Boult (o) & Raghu Sharma

The Mumbai Indians team has been playing a consistent combination for the last few matches. Corbin Bosch has done a good job so far in the absence of Mitchell Santner, so expect MI to continue with him for now. Similarly, Karn Sharma has done a brilliant job with the ball so far, and that should give the management the confidence to continue with Karn too. Overall, MI will be happy with the way the team is contributing, but they should find a way to utilize Tilak Varma properly.

The Gujarat Titans have been making a few changes in almost all their matches so far. The match against Mumbai Indians should be no different with Ishant Sharma expected to be ruled out. With Ishant not there, GT can play either Arshad Khan or Mahipal Lomror. Lomror hasn’t played a game so far, but in case GT struggle with their batting, Lomror could be a better option than Arshad Khan, purely for batting ability.
