The Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI) will square off in an exciting encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Sunday, March 24. Fans are looking forward to this match which takes place in the legendary Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad as both teams begin new eras with new skippers at the helm in IPL 2024.
GT vs MI Preview
A major topic of discussion following this matchup will be how Pandya leads MI in his first match as the team’s new captain. In an all-cash trade during the off-season, MI acquired Pandya from GT. After that, MI announced that the star all-around player would take over as the team’s new captain. Rohit Sharma had held the position since the 2013 IPL and had guided MI to five IPL trophies. Pandya, who has been given leadership responsibilities, will be the center of attention.
For GT, Shubman Gill will look to fit in in the huge shoes of expectation left by Pandya. Gill has been Gujarat Titans’ most skillful batter in the last two seasons. However, it remains to be seen how he handles the captaincy pressure and how it affects his batting. Gill won the Orange Cap last year but it won’t be easy with the added responsibility this time around. For GT, all eyes will be on Spencer Johnson, the left-arm quick from Australia. Afghan allrounder Azmatullah Omarzai is also one to watch out for, who might be included in the XI.
