IPL 2025, Eliminator: 5 milestones that can be achieved in today's GT vs MI match 

Gujarat Titans (GT) will face Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Eliminator of IPL 2025 at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur on Friday, May 30. This is a knockout clash as the loser will be eliminated from the competition. On the other hand, the winner will face Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Qualifier 2 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on June 1.

Both GT and MI could have confirmed a berth in the top two had they won their respective last games. However, Gujarat ended their league campaign with two losses, while Mumbai went down to PBKS by seven wickets in their last league game. As a result, both teams will now clash in the Eliminator.

Gujarat will be hoping that openers Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill deliver another big partnership. With no Jos Buttler, the others will need to lift their game. For Mumbai, Suryakumar Yadav will be hoping for better support from the other batters. Runs will be expected from Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya even as Tilak Varma's form remains a concern.

Ahead of the GT vs MI IPL 2025 Eliminator match on Friday, we take a look at some personal milestones that can be achieved by players from both sides.
