Again Mumbai lost in the first match of the season

Mumbai Indians lost their first match against Gujarat Titans. This loss is not really a common occurrence, as Mumbai Indians have been successful in the first match in the IPL so far.

Mumbai Indians batting protested in the first match. They set a target of 168 runs. Despite their captain Hardik Pandya getting off to a good start, the latter batsmen were able to resist. With the help of captain Shubman Gill's 31 runs and Sai Sudarshan's 45 runs, Gujarat Titans restricted Mumbai Indians to 168 runs.

Gujarat Titans started the batting normally, but their batsmen looked a bit out of sorts against Mumbai Indians. Mumbai Indians' pacers put them under pressure every six and deliver unbeaten runs. Mumbai pacers Bumrah and Gerald Coetzee rattled the Gujarat batsmen and made their defense difficult. By doing so, Gujarat's batting line-up was briefly weakened and they could only muster 162 runs.

Mumbai Indians have done a fairly good job in their batting line-up with Brevis and Rohit Sharma playing the XI. These two batsmen have formed a great wicket partnership recently, which is an example for Mumbai Indians to be the best financing case and it offers a beneficial proposition for their team.

However, Gujarat Titans managed to match Mumbai Indians' prowess in this match by claiming a high target. Gujarat's bowlers have been able to challenge Mumbai Indians' batting line-up with high run rates, providing an American-style counter to their popularity elsewhere.

The problem is, the pacers of Mumbai Indians could use the Mumbai Indians ability to shift a fragile part that could make them unable to position normally. In this epic match, it is important to continue.
