Mohammed Siraj to Mitchell SantnerA prolonged appeal for LBW and the finger finally goes up. This is bowled on a good length and around leg by Mohammed Sirajgetting the ball to just move off the pitch. Mitchell Santner comes inside the line to flick but misses and gets hit on the pads. The finger goes but but the review is taken. No bat involved but Ball Tracking shows that the ball pitched outside the line of leg stump. It will be a dot ball and Gujarat Titans win the game by 36 runs!

Right then, the Titans are up and running but MI remain one of the only two teams to still be without a win. Next up, it is a double header lined up for IPL fans on Sunday, 30 March. First up, Delhi Capitals will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Visakhapatnam in what looks to be another high-scoring match and that will begin at 3.30 pm IST (10 am GMT). That will be followed by Rajasthan Royals hosting Chennai Super Kings in Guwahati. That game will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT) but you can join us sooner for the build-up of both those games. Cheers!
Mitchell Santner walks out to bat now.
Naman Dhir is the next batter in.
Strategic break! Right then, MI need 85 runs off 36 legal deliveries which means GT are firmly in front at the moment. They have bowled well as a unit but with Suryakumar Yadav well set, if Hardik Pandya could get into his groove as well, then things might change quickly. The next wicket is key for both teams and for MI, one if not both these batters need to bat till the 19th or 20th over. Let's see if GT can keep enough distance between MI and the target.
MI skipper, Hardik Pandya is in next.
Robin Minz, the Impact sub comes in at number 5. He replaces Satyanarayana Raju.
Strategic break! This has been a solid bowling display from GT and there doesn't seem to be much or any dew at the moment. MI have again failed to get that positive start with the bat but Tilak Varma and Suryakumar Yadav at two of the most in-form T20 batters of the last year or so and they are building up a good platform from where MI can launch. GT know they need a couple of more wickets as that middle order of MI is inexperienced apart from Hardik Pandya. An interesting phase of play awaits. Sai Kishore now comes into the attack as well.
Ishant Sharma is brought back into the attack as well.
Kagiso Rabada is back into the attack. He went for 15 in his first.
Interesting move as Rashid Khan comes in to bowl the final over of the Powerplay.
Suryakumar Yadav is the new batter in.
Mohammed Siraj to continue...
Ishant Sharma to have a bowl now.
Kagiso Rabada to share the new ball with Mohammed Siraj.
Tilak Varma walks in at number 3 for MI.
