IPL 2026: Gujarat Titans won the toss and decided to bowl, Mumbai Indians gave debut opportunity to Krish Bhagat.

Ahmedabad. Gujarat Titans won the toss and invited Mumbai Indians to bat first in the 30th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 20026 on Monday. Today here Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill won the toss and decided to bowl first. He said that to be honest, it looks like a decent wicket. There was some dew in the last match.

So even if there is dew today, I think it would be wise to bowl first. We are playing with the same team. Whereas Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya said that we also wanted to bowl first. Obviously, this is our last match as a group.

Today is a new beginning. The sun is out again and everything is looking positive. Two new players are debuting in our team. Danish (Malewar) is playing his first match for Mumbai Indians. And also Krishna (Bhagat), who was earlier part of the team as a support bowler and who impressed us a lot. He had joined the team just three days ago, and see the game of life that he is playing on the field today.

Both the teams are as follows:-

Gujarat Titans (XI): Shubman Gill (captain), B Sai Sudarshan, Jos Buttler (wicketkeeper), Glenn Phillips, Washington Sundar, Shahrukh Khan, Rashid Khan, Mohammed Siraj, Kagiso Rabada, Prasidh Krishna and Ashok Sharma.

Mumbai Indians (XI): Danish Malewar, Quinton de Kock (wicketkeeper), Naman Dheer, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (captain), Tilak Verma, Sherfane Rutherford, Mitchell Santner, Krish Bhagat, Jasprit Bumrah and AM Ghazanfar.
