Mullanpur Stadium to Host IPL 2025 Eliminator: Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Titans
Exciting IPL Showdown at Mullanpur Stadium
The stunning Mullanpur Stadium in New Chandigarh is gearing up for the final match of the 2025 Indian Premier League, featuring the Eliminator clash between the Gujarat Titans and the Mumbai Indians. In a previous qualifier held at this venue, the Punjab Kings faced a tough defeat against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, losing by 8 wickets. Following this match, both teams will head to Ahmedabad, where Punjab will compete against the winner of today's game in the second qualifier.
The toss favored the Mumbai Indians, who opted to bat first. Captain Hardik Pandya expressed his determination to approach this match with the same intensity as their previous games, emphasizing that they have treated their last nine matches as do-or-die situations. The Mumbai Indians made three changes to their lineup, bringing in Jonny Bairstow, Gleeson, and the promising Raj Angad Bawa.
Had the coin toss gone in favor of the Gujarat Titans, they would have likely chosen to chase, believing it prudent to set a solid score. The Titans' captain, a local favorite from Chandigarh, indicated that the team would showcase two different strategies. Additionally, Kushal Mendis is set to make his debut for the Gujarat Titans, while Washington is also expected to play a key role.
