Hello and welcome to Sportstar’s highlights from the IPL 2025 Eliminator between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians in Mullanpur on May 30.
Gleeson is asked to bowl. However, it looks like he has pulled up. Gleeson will bowl. 24 needed off last over. 
Single off first ball. 23 off five balls. A dot off the second. Terrific start. SRK opens the face towards deep point and a terrific effort at the boundary cuts it down to just two. 21 off three balls. 
Gleeson is walking off the field. Ashwani will finish the over. 
OUT! Shahrukh is gone. Drives straight to covers. Goes after scoring 13 off seven balls. 
Rashid Khan. A dot off the fifth ball. All over! Rashid is struck on the pads. Although umpire has given not out, MI has reviewed. But a convincing win for Mumbai. They head to Ahmedabad to play the Qualifier 2 against Punjab Kings. 
Boult. OUT! Rutherford is gone. Hits the ball straight deep midwicket. He falls after scoring 24 off 15 balls. 
Shahrukh Khan in at seven. Off the mark with a double off first ball. Another double. Yorker and Shahrukh can only pick a single. Another single. SRK ends the over with a six over midwicket! 12 from the over. 
Bumrah for his last over. Only one run off first two balls. SIX!! Tewatia dances around the crease, creates room towards leg side and launches the full toss over midwicket. Tries the same thing again, but this time Tewatia misses. A single off leg bye. Nine runs from the over. 
Ashwani. Four runs off first three balls. A good over so far. 50 needed now in 21 balls. Tewatia comes down the tracks and slaps the ball towards cover for four. Much needed boundary. A yorker to end the over. Nine off the over. 
Gleeson. Four! Rutherford opens the face of the bat and goes past point. Another boundary! This time flicks the ball towards midwicket. Nine runs off first three balls. OUT!! Sudharsan is gone! He goes for the ramp and is cleaned up. End of a lovely knock: 80 off 49 balls. 
Rahul Tewatia in at six. Off the mark with a single. Rutherford gets an outside edge and it goes for four!

Suryakumar Yadav is getting some treatment. Bumrah is back. 
Three singles off first three balls. OUT! What a fantastic yorker! Nutmegs Sundar and cleans up the leg stump. Sundar goes off balance and falls face front. He goes for 48 off 24 balls. 
Sherfane Rutherford in at five. Four runs and a wicket. 
Boult is back. Slower bouncer and Sundar pulls the ball way into the backward square leg for a six!! Another one!! On the pads and Sundar picks it in front of square leg. Back-to-back sixes and GT is well and truly into the chase. Sundar ends the over with a four! Lovely punch straight down the ground. 18 runs from the over.
Ashwani into the attack. He starts off on a slower side, bowling less than 130 km/h. It was turning out to be a good over, with just seven runs off five balls. However, Sundar smacks a cover drive and ends the over with a four. 
Ashwani Kumar comes in as Impact sub for Rohit. 
Hardik is back. FOUR! Sundar punishes the full toss as he hits it straight past the bowler. Lovely yorker by Pandya, Sundar had no clue. Another full toss and Sundar ends the with a six!

Washington lofts Hardik’s first ball over midwicket, doesn’t time it well enough. Picks up a couple. Four!! Slaps the next ball through wide mid off and picks up four. Two singles follow in the next two balls. Excellent finish from Hardik, keeps the over to 10.
Naman Dhir into the attack. Sudharsan slaps one through long off for a couple. Four!! A touch short, Sudharsan places his whip to perfection again and finds the fence. Nine runs from the over.

Bumrah back. Four!! Sudharsan whips a full toss through midwicket for four. Four!! Short to Sudharsan, pulled over midwicket for a boundary. Sudharsan calls Mendis for a non existent run, but the fielder misses his shy at the striker’s end.

Bumrah from the other end. Too straight to Sudharsan who clips it in front of square for a couple. Jams one back to the bowler, manages to pick up a single to mid on. Just four runs from the over. 
Boult opens the bowling. Gill and Sai Sudharsan open as expected. A silly mid-on in place first ball for Sudharsan. 
Sudharsan gets off the mark with a single to deep third. Gill picks up a single to deep fine. Tilak’s dive at mid off saves three after Sudharsan’s drive. WICKET!! Appeals for lbw against Gill and the umpire raises his finger. Gill goes up for the review. Three reds on ball tracking!
Kusal Mendis in at 3. Gets an outside edge that runs over backward point and picks up a couple.

Suryakumar Yadav in at three. Off the mark with a single. Suryakumar sweeps and terrific effort at the deep square leg region cuts it down to just two. Seven runs from the over. 
Rashid Khan into the attack. Starts off bowling a bit flatter on length. An LBW appeal against Rohit but not interest shown by the umpire. Rashid’s went slower as the over progressed. Just three runs from it. 
R Sai Kishore into the attack now. Bairstow getting a bit of taping on his right leg. 
Rohit takes out the slog sweep and goes over the square leg boundary for a six! Follows it up with a four. Another slog sweep used to great effect. Another sweep, another four for Rohit. 14 runs from the over.

Outswinger, Bairstow swings hard, gets a thick outside edge that goes over deep third boundary. Nothing going GT’s way so far. Another SIX! Full ball and Bairstow launches it straight. Four more! Bairstow gets another outside past short third. 26 runs from the over!! MI has already crossed 50-run mark. 
Siraj. Lovely straight drive from Rohit and it goes for four! Classic shot. Now he goes over mid on and gets another four. An appeal for LBW against Rohit now but umpire isn’t interested. No review. Rohit is dropped again!! Went for a wild swing, gets an outside edge and the ball pops out of Kusal Mendis’ gloves. Siraj is livid. 10 runs from the over. 
Prasidh Krishna. Bairstow gets his first boundary – and MI’s – as he plays a lofted square drive for four. Followed by a couple of doubles. Dropped! Rohit is given a second life. Rohit went for the pull, gets a top edge and Coetzee at the deep fine leg isn’t able to hold on to it. 12 runs from the over. 
A new opening pair for Mumbai Indians – Jonny Bairstow and Rohit Sharma. Mohammed Siraj with the new ball. 
Rohit drives towards cover, the fielder gets the hand on the ball and cuts it down to just a single. Bairstow, first ball of the season for him, drives towards square and gets a double. Now Rohit lofts just over cover but doesn’t that well, can only get a double. Six runs from the over.

MI wins the toss, opts to bat first.
Jonny Bairstow, Richard Gleeson come into the Playing XI. Raj Angad Bawa back in the team too.
Kusal Mendis comes in for Jos Buttler and Washington Sundar comes in for Arshad Khan for the Titans.
Matthew Hayden and Deep Dasgupta reckon the pitch doesn’t have the same level of grass as it had yesterday. We might see so extra bounce like Qualifer 1. Dew will be negligible, they add. 
This year, Hazlewood has been the leader of Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s attack, claiming 21 wickets in his team’s exhilarating run to the final.

Rohit’s IPL Playoffs record is underwhelming — just 316 runs in 21 matches, averaging 15.80 with two fifties and a highest score of 68 in the 2020 final against Delhi Capitals.
Bumrah will be leading Mumbai Indians’ bowling. He boasts a strong IPL Playoffs record. In eight Playoff matches, Bumrah has taken 11 wickets at an economy rate of 6.29 — the second-best among bowlers with at least 10 wickets, behind only Rashid Khan.
His best came in 2020, with a match-winning 4/14 against Delhi Capitals in Qualifier 1. Bumrah ranks third in Mumbai Indians’ playoff wicket-takers, behind Harbhajan Singh and Lasith Malinga, who have 14 wickets each.

After more than two months of a long-drawn-out league phase, the future course of Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians in the IPL’s 18th edition hinges on how they fare over 40 overs in Friday’s Eliminator at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium in Mullanpur.
While teams playing Qualifier 1, by finishing in the top two, have the cushion of faltering once and rising again in the bid to make the final, there are no second chances for sides pitted against each other in the Eliminator. These knockout fixtures invariably carry an added edge, for all the hard yards put in reaching that far can be rendered irrelevant in the blink of an eye.
Both teams have navigated their way through these high-pressure situations in the past. In the Titans’ brief existence, they have already made two finals, tasting glory in 2022 and finishing runners-up the following year. MI, meanwhile, is one of the most successful franchises in IPL history — its five titles are the joint-highest alongside Chennai Super Kings.
