Suryakumar Yadav perished to Prasidh Krishna in the 16th over

Mumbai needed to chase down a 197-run target in the encounter. Suryakumar Yadav was the top performer with the bat for his side, scoring 48 runs off 28 deliveries.

He narrowly missed out on a half-century after being dismissed by Prasidh Krishna on the final ball of the 16th over. It was a slower delivery and the swashbuckling batter looked to play an attacking shot.

Suryakumar couldn't get the desired connection as the ball hit on the toe-end of the bat and was caught by Shubman Gill at long-off. MI ultimately finished at 160/6, suffering a 36-run defeat.

Prasidh was the pick of the GT bowlers in the contest, registering impressive figures of 4-0-18-2. Mohammed Siraj also picked up two crucial wickets, while Kagiso Rabada and Sai Kishore claimed one scalp each.

With the bat, GT's opener played an important role. Sai Sudharsan was their highest-run getter with a 63-run knock off 41 balls, playing a key role in the Gujarat-based side's maiden win of the season.

GT have now climbed to third place on the IPL 2025 points table with two points from as many outings. MI, on the other hand, are yet to get off the mark after two fixtures and are languishing at the penultimate spot in the standings.
