IPL 2024: GT vs MI Match 5 Highlights: Unmissable video recap, turning points, match analysis, stats, and more

Gujarat Titans played host to Mumbai Indians in match 5 of IPL 2024 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Gujarat were off to a decent start but were hit by a tornado called Jasprit Bumrah. They could not make a resurgence after that as Sai Sudharsan played ODI-like innings of 45 runs. The other significant contribution was made by Shubman Gill who scored 31 runs. As a result, they set a below-par total of 168 runs for MI to chase. 

MI were chasing a target that was within their reach, but suffered an early setback with Ishan Kishan getting out without scoring. Rohit Sharma played a good innings of 43 runs off 29 balls and was well supported by Dewald Brewis, who scored 46 runs off 38 balls. Naman Dhir contributed a quick 20 runs before getting dismissed. Tilak Varma scored 25 runs off 19 balls but lost his wicket while trying to accelerate the run rate. Hardik Pandya hit a quickfire 11 runs off just four balls, but he too got out soon after. In the end, Umesh Yadav's impressive bowling in the final over helped GT win a nail-biter by six runs.

Here are some highlights from KKR vs SRH Match 3 of IPL 2024:

1. Jasprit Bumrah shines with four-fer

Jasprit Bumrah was in his element during the first half of the game. The pitch that exclaimed batting loudly, seemed to assist Bumrah more. The pacer dismantled the GT’s top order and later humbled David Miller with a slower delivery. He bowled with an economy rate of 3.50 where any intent from the batter was making the ball sail over the boundary.

2. Gerald Coetzee gets his maiden IPL wicket

The South African pacer who created havoc against India during their tour to South Africa made his well-deserved IPL debut for Mumbai Indians. The pacer who clicks 145 KMPH even on his off day, had Azmatullah Omarzai as his first scalp. A cross-seam delivery mishit by Omarzai went straight to Tilak Verma who was stationed at deep-square leg.

3. Umesh Yadav makes Hardik Pandya trudge back to the pavilion

Bowling the final over and defending 19 runs, Umesh Yadav could not have asked for a more fitting comeback. He was hit for a six and a boundary on the first two balls by marauding Hardik Pandya. But the pacer held his nerves and dismissed him the very next ball and subsequently Piyush Chawla, therefore took his team home by six runs.
