Preview
The opening game of the 2024 Indian Premier League would pit the Gujarat Titans against the Mumbai Indians (GT vs MI). In the Qualifier 2 match between the two sides played at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium last season, Shubman Gill scored an incredible hundred runs. The two teams will face off again because the game is scheduled to happen at the same location. On March 24, 2024, it will be the second game.
The night game between MI and GT is scheduled for 7:30 PM (IST), while the match between RR and LSG takes place in Jaipur at 3:30 PM (IST). With Hardik Pandya leading the team, MI will have a fresh appearance. Similarly, with GT playing under Shubman Gill, they will also have a fresh look. Given that several of the two teams’ star players will be absent for the contest, the rivalry between them will be intriguing.
Suryakumar Yadav won’t be playing for MI. The elite player isn’t ready for the big game yet. Due to an injury, GT’s premier bowler Mohammed Shami will not be playing in the IPL in 2024. World-class players such as Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Tim David, Rashid Khan, Shubman Gill, Kane Williamson, Umesh Yadav, David Miller, Ishan Kishan, and so on are on both teams. That game between the two teams seems to be fantastic.
