In the IPL 2023 Qualifier 2, taking place on Friday (May 26) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the reigning champions Gujarat Titans will strive to maintain their title defense as they go head-to-head with the record champions Mumbai Indians. Both teams are eager to secure the final spot in the tournament. The GT, led by Hardik Pandya, will be seeking redemption after their loss to the Chennai Super Kings in Qualifier 1, while Rohit Sharma’s MI aims to carry forward their winning momentum from the Eliminator victory over the Lucknow Super Giants.
The victor of this match will have the opportunity to face the four-time winners Chennai Super Kings in the final on Sunday (May 28), which will also be held at the same venue. CSK earned a direct entry into the summit clash by defeating GT in Qualifier 1 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Tuesday (May 23). Although GT has previously emerged victorious against Mumbai Indians at their home ground earlier this season, they remain cautious of MI’s outstanding playoff track record and overall performance. The five-time champions, on the other hand, have struggled during their infrequent visits to Ahmedabad.
