IPL 2025, MI vs GT Live Score: Sai Kishore Strikes as Hardik Falls, Mumbai 112/5 vs Gujarat

In a high-stakes encounter at the Wankhede Stadium, Gujarat Titans have seized control after a strong fightback against Mumbai Indians in Match 56 of IPL 2025. The Titans' captain, Shubman Gill, won the toss and opted to bowl first, and that decision is beginning to pay off.

Mumbai Indians, who came into the match riding a six-game winning streak, found themselves at 112/5 in 13.2 overs, losing key wickets at crucial junctures. Hardik Pandya, the MI captain, was the latest to fall — caught by Gill off Sai Kishore — as Gujarat continued to chip away with regular breakthroughs.

MI vs GT: A Clash of Contenders

This match carries significant playoff implications, with both sides aiming to secure a top-two finish. While Mumbai’s resurgence this season has been fueled by consistent batting and their lethal bowling duo of Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult, Gujarat have relied on their dependable top order — Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler — and disciplined bowling to remain a formidable force.

Match Highlights So Far:

8:48 PM IST:

Mumbai is stumbling. Hardik Pandya’s aggressive shot found a top edge and was safely pouched by Shubman Gill. In the last 15 minutes, momentum has swung Gujarat’s way. Mumbai must be cautious to avoid finishing with a below-par total. Gerald Coetzee has joined the attack.

8:40 PM IST:

Sai Kishore has removed both Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya in quick succession. Will Jacks, who was struggling against Rashid Khan, also perished trying to break the shackles. Mumbai’s foundation has begun to crack in the middle overs.

8:28 PM IST:

Mumbai rode their luck early with two reviews going in their favor. Will Jacks reached his half-century amidst this, but just as MI were gaining momentum, Suryakumar was dismissed by Sai Kishore.

8:18 PM IST:

Suryakumar Yadav looked in sublime touch, racing into the 30s with trademark inside-out shots. Gujarat spinners are getting turn, but Surya was adjusting masterfully—until Sai Kishore struck.

8:08 PM IST:

Gujarat dropped three catches during the powerplay — a rare lapse in their fielding standards. Jacks and Surya capitalized to build a promising stand. The pitch is offering grip for spinners, as shown by Sai Kishore’s sharp turn.

7:57 PM IST:

Rohit Sharma's innings lacked fluency. He tried to force the pace but was undone by the sticky pitch, falling inside the ring. Mumbai’s top order now finds itself under pressure.

7:48 PM IST:

Despite an early wicket, the pitch has looked decent for batting. After Rohit’s dismissal, MI found some boundaries, suggesting that conditions might favor strokeplay as the evening progresses.

7:38 PM IST:

Ryan Rickelton was dismissed cheaply — a soft dismissal as he drove straight to cover. Mohammed Siraj drew first blood for the Titans. Will Jacks walked in early to rebuild the innings.

7:29 PM IST:

The teams are on the field and we’re underway at Wankhede. Ryan Rickelton and Rohit Sharma opened for Mumbai, while Gujarat gathered in a tight huddle, pumped for the contest.
