GT vs MI: IPL Head-To-Head Record
Gujarat Titans made their IPL debut in 2022, which is why they have only met Mumbai Indians eight times so far. Interestingly, they lead the head-to-head statistics 5-3 against MI.
What's even more remarkable is that Gujarat have won four of their last five encounters against Mumbai, which suggests a psychological upper hand. This could play in favor of the Shubman Gill-led side, especially with Hardik Pandya's team struggling this season.
At the moment, MI is at the bottom of the IPL 2026 table with 2 points, while GT are in the fight for the top 4, currently placed sixth with 6 points.
