MI vs GT Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at the Wankhede Stadium has traditionally been a batting-friendly wicket which assists the batters who can trust the bounce and pace of the wicket and play their shots right from the first ball.
Having said that, there have been certain occasions where the surface has behaved differently, with bowlers dictating the terms.
The nature of the wickets depends a lot on dew. If the game is affected by dew, then it is difficult for the bowlers to extract any kind of help that the wicket might have provided in normal circumstances.
If we talk about the matches played at this particular venue in the ongoing IPL season, it has been a mixed bag, with the surface playing true to its nature on certain occasions.
While there have been certain instances where the pitch has been a bit difficult to bat on, with few balls holding in the surface and stopping after pitching at a particular length.
The difference like the surface could be due to the difference in the colour of the soil being used to prepare the wicket for a particular game.
A black soil wicket will not offer as much bounce as compared to a red soil wicket, which is known to be a batting-friendly one.
A total of 123 IPL games have been played at the Wankhede Stadium, which is the home ground of MI and has witnessed several memorable matches.
Out of the 123 games, the team batting first has won 56 matches, while the chasing team has won 67 matches.
The highest successful chase at this ground is 214/4 by the Mumbai Indians against the Rajasthan Royals in 2023.
MI are yet to concede a game after posting a total of 200 runs or more in the history of the tournament. It would be fascinating to see if the former champions are able to keep their record intact.
Both teams will look to register a win in the upcoming game, where they will take on each other at the home ground of the Mumbai Indians.
Conclusion
MI would like to replicate the performance that they delivered in all three departments of the game against RR and make it seven wins in a row by winning the MI vs GT game as well.
Like MI, GT would also want to win the game against the home team to register back-to-back wins, having won the last game against SRH.
