In the 30th match of IPL 2026, Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans were face to face on Monday, April 20 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After winning the toss, Gujarat chose to bowl first, but their decision did not prove to be very effective in the match.
Tilak scored unbeaten 101 runs
Batting first, Mumbai Indians scored a strong score of 199 runs after losing 5 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs. Tilak Verma played an important role in this big innings of the team. He batted brilliantly and scored unbeaten 101 runs and took his team to a big score. His innings included 8 fours and 7 sixes. The special thing was that this was also the first century of his IPL career, which completely changed the course of the match towards Mumbai.
Gujarat Titans team, which came to chase the target of 200 runs, looked under pressure from the very beginning. Their batsmen could not stand in front of Mumbai bowlers and wickets kept falling at regular intervals. The entire team was reduced to 100 runs in just 15.5 overs. In this way Gujarat had to face a crushing defeat by 99 runs.
Ashwani Kumar took 4 wickets
The contribution of the bowlers was also very important in Mumbai’s victory. Ashwani Kumar performed brilliantly and took 4 wickets for just 24 runs in 4 overs and broke the back of the opposition team. Apart from this, Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar and Mitchell Santner took 2-2 wickets, while Jasprit Bumrah and captain Hardik Pandya got 1-1 success.
In this match, Mumbai Indians showed excellent performance in every department. While on one hand, Tilak Verma’s stormy century took the team to a strong score, on the other hand, the bowlers defended it completely and defeated Gujarat in a one-sided match.
