An upbeat Mumbai Indians are likely to be tested to the hilt by table-toppers and defending champions Gujarat Titans in a vital Indian Premier League match at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday.

Here's a look at the potential qualification scenarios for all the 10 teams in IPL 2023 -
Gujarat Titans players will wear lavender jerseys during their last home game of the Indian Premier League season on May 15 here in support of the fight against cancer.

The initiative aims to highlight the critical issue of cancer, which continues to be a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality in India and worldwide.
Wicketkeeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha became a talk of the town after he walked out on to field while wearing trousers in reverse during the IPL 2023 match between Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants on Sunday. Saha, who played a blistering knock of 81 off 43 balls and helped his side reach a massive total of 227/2, also gave a moment of laughter to all the fans and players on the field. However, after the match ended in Gujarat's favour, Saha revealed the reason behind committing such a big 'fashion crime'.
Lucknow Super Giants suffered a 56-run defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match on Sunday, with questions being raised over the team's captain and coach. Chasing a mammoth target of 228 runs, the start LSG had was a decent one, with the team putting up 114 runs on the board for the lost of just one wicket in 12.1 overs. However, the pace of scoring runs went down quickly, with Deepak Hooda, Marcus Stoinis, Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni all failing to put big runs on the board. After the match, former India cricketer Virender Sehwag minced no words as he questioned the LSG team management, including coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Krunal Pandya's decision-making over the batting order in the match.
Young batter Shubman Gill will lend his voice to Indian Spider-Man in the upcoming animated movie "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse", the makers announced on Monday. The film, slated to be released by Sony Pictures Entertainment India across the country, marks the big-screen debut of Pavitr Prabhakar, the Indian Spider-Man. Gill, who is currently playing for Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League, said Spider-Man is "one of the most relatable superheroes". The 23-year-old will voice the Hindi and Punjabi versions of the film.
Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar was involved in a rather hilarious incident with Gujarat Titans pacers Mohit Sharma and Mohammed Shami, following the game against the Lucknow Super Giants on Sunday. As GT beat LSG by 56 runs at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Shami regained the Purple Cap. During the post-match presentation ceremony, Mohit was supposed to hand the Purple Cap to Shami. However, before he could do so, Gavaskar got confused about who had the honour among the two in-form LSG pacers.
Despite holding the status of a 'red-ball specialist' Wriddhiman Saha continues to prove his worth in the shortest format of the game. The Gujarat Titans wicket-keeper batter went all guns blazing in the match against Lucknow Super Giants, slamming a 20-ball half-century on Sunday. After an exciting outing with the bat for Gujarat, Saha committed a 'fashion crime' as he came out to the field while wearing trousers in reverse. The wicket-keeper batter took a little time to realise his mistake, but skipper Hardik Pandya and pacer Mohammed Shami's reactions proved how funny the situation was.
