Brb, admin needs to fix the phone”. Mumbai Indians performed well but were defeated by Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2024 opener.
Mumbai Indians adopted a puzzling batting strategy to allow Shubman Gill to make his debut as captain of the Gujarat Titans and score a thrilling six in their IPL opener on Sunday. Score victory.
Jasprit Bumrah (3/14) was at his absolute best in his first IPL match in two years as he fired shots at will to help Mumbai Indians restrict Gujarat Titans to 168/6.
Happy Holi to all!

Things started going downhill as MI ended with 162/9 and they needed to score just 43 runs in the last five overs with 7 wickets in hand.
MI therefore failed to break the curse of the first game. The last time they won an IPL opener was in 2012 against Chennai Super Kings.
