IPL 2025: GT vs MI, Match 9: Stats Review of player records and achieved milestones

The 9th match of IPL 2025 saw Gujarat Titans (GT) taking on Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. MI won the toss and opted to bowl first, aiming to control the game early. However, GT’s openers Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan had other plans as they provided a blistering start for their team, racing to 66/0 at the end of the powerplay.

GT’s momentum hit in the middle overs when MI skipper Hardik Pandya stepped up and claimed two crucial wickets, stalling the Titans’ innings. Despite the hiccups in the middle phase, GT managed to put up an imposing total of 196/8 in their allotted 20 overs, giving their bowlers a solid target to defend.

In response, Mumbai Indians had a disappointing start to their chase. Their experienced opener, Rohit Sharma, fell early, bowled by Mohammed Siraj for just 8 runs. His opening partner, Ryan Rickelton, also failed to make an impact, adding just 6 runs before departing. These early setbacks put MI on the back foot right from the powerplay.
