On a slippery slope after back-to-back losses, Gujarat Titans will need their batters to fire when they take on high-flying Lucknow Super Giants as both teams look to seal IPL play-offs berth on Tuesday. The two new entrants are having a dream run in their maiden season.
Gujarat Titans suffered their third defeat of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season on Friday as the side failed to get over the line against Mumbai Indians. In the final over, Gujarat were unable to chase nine runs and as a result, Rohit Sharma and company emerged victorious. Gujarat Titans maybe at the top of the points table currently, but the side has lost back-to-back games. Former England captain Kevin Pietersen highlighted how skipper Hardik Pandya got it wrong at the toss during the game against Punjab Kings as well.
The 51st match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) edition between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans witnessed high drama and, in the end, it was the Rohit Sharma-led side that prevailed in a last over thriller. Pacer Daniel Sams held his nerve as he defended 9 runs in the final over, and in the end, Mumbai Indians registered a five-run win. After the victory, the entire Mumbai Indians camp celebrated in style and skipper Rohit Sharma ran in from the deep in joy.
Gujarat Titans' skipper Hardik Pandya blamed two run-outs at a crucial juncture in their innings for the five-run defeat against Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the Brabourne Stadium on Friday. Gujarat Titans were in cruise mode after openers Shubman Gill (52) and Wriddhiman Saha (55) had raised 106 for the opening wicket. But the table-toppers lost their way, falling to some good work in the field by Mumbai, who managed to restrict the opposition to 172/5 while defending their total of 177/6. It was a match that Gujarat should have won easily considering the start they got but in the end they could not make nine runs off the last six balls bowled by Daniel Sams.
Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma on Friday praised the "skills" of Daniel Sams after the Australian fast bowler defended nine runs off the last over to hand his team their second win this IPL. The five-time champions edged out table-toppers Gujarat Titans by five runs as they kept down the opposition to 172-5 in a chase of 178 at Mumbai's Brabourne Stadium. Gujarat were sailing along at 156-3 when skipper Hardik Pandya was run out and Mumbai seized the moment to make a comeback.
Daniel Sams holds nerve to fashion 5-run win for wooden spooners as table-toppers Titans choke in the chaseAustralian Daniel Sams bowled three dot balls in the last over to concede just three runs, and give Mumbai Indians, who were under the p ump during the first half of the chase, a come-from-behind five-run win over Gujarat Titans, at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Friday. Apart from the three dots, Sams' over contained the run out of Rahul Tewatia and a tough, missed catch of Rashid Khan. AS IT HAPPENEDA stroke-filled 106-run opening wicket partnership between Wriddhiman Saha, who made 55 (40b; 6x4, 2x6) and Shubman Gill (52; 36b; 6x4, 2x6) had set the Titans on course in the chase. Both were dismissed by leg spinner Murugan Ashwin in the 13th over. However, captain Hardik Pandya's run out in the 18th over gave the five-time IPL champions MI a window of opportunity. Titans still top the table with 16 points from 11 matches while Mumbai Indians have four points from 10 matches.

However, the Titans kept losing wickets, including two crucial run-outs as they required nine runs in the last over to win the match.
