MI vs GT Highlights, IPL 2023: Suryakumar Yadav shone with 103 not out off 49 balls as Mumbai Indians defeated Gujarat Titans by 27 runs at Wankhede Stadium on Friday. Meanwhile, Rashid Khan's all-round effort -- 4 for 30 with the ball and unbeaten 79 off 32 with the bat -- went in vain. Earlier, Suryakumar's knock guided MI to 218 for 5 in 20 overs. After getting an invitation to bat first, Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan provided a flying start to MI but Rashid Khan dismissed both the batters in one over to bring GT back in the game. The Afghanistan spinner returned a four-fer but failed to restrict MI to a low total due to Suryakumar's unbeaten century. GT skipper Hardik Pandya had won the toss and opted to bowl. (SCORECARD | IPL 2023 POINTS TABLE)

MI vs GT Live: Mumbai Indians win!!!
Rashid Khan's all-round effort goes in vain as Mumbai Indians win the game by 27 runs. The Afghanistan spin wizard picked 4 for 30 before scoring unbeaten 79 off 32, but GT still lose the game as they had a big target to chase. MI win the game comfortably and credit for it goes to Suryakumar Yadav's 103 not out off 49 balls that gave them the cushion of extra 10-20 runs.
Gujarat Titans need 48 runs in 6 balls. Mumbai Indians have almost won this game. They just need to bowl six legal deliveries properly and take the third spot back in points table.
Rashid Khan raced to his half-century in 21 balls. It came on the second ball of the over when Rashid hit Green for a six. He later hit another six in the over. 13 runs came off it. Gujarat Titans need 55 runs in 12 balls.
Akash Madhwal ends his quota of four overs with figures of 3 for 31. He was terrific tonight. Mumbai Indians had a big total on the board but they needed a good start in bowling as well against a power-packed batting line-up of Gujarat Titans and Madhwal was on the money for them. GT need 83 runs in 24 balls.
Gujarat Titans need 89 runs in 30 balls, the match is almost over for them, unless Rashid Khan plays a blinder to take the game close. He is batting on 25 off 11 balls, but even such a strike rate of won't be enough to bring GT back in this chase.
12.1 - Another one bites the dust! Piyush Chawla has got the wicket of Rahul Tewatia and this might be the game for Mumbai Indians. Gujarat Tians are seven down now in the chase of 219 runs.
Only three runs came off the over. Gujarat Titans need 116 runs in 42 balls.
Rahul Tewatia smashed the ball wide of long-on for a four. Piyush Chawla bowled it full and got the punishment. It is getting hard for the MI bowlers as dew has arrived on the ground and gripping the ball is not easy. Gujarat Titans need 129 runs in 54 balls.
18 runs came off Piyush Chawla's second over, Gujarat Titans need 142 runs in 66 balls. The asking rate is close to 13. It should not be a matter of concern for GT but they have lost five wickets. They need a good partnership to stand a chance.
7.1 - Abhinav Manohar is gone! Kumar Kartikeya has got his wicket. It was an arm ball bowled around good length region. Manohar went on the backfoot but failed to judge the length right. The ball hit the stumps to end his knock.
6.1 - Wow! Piyush Chawla has cleaned up Vijay Shankar with a beauty. It was a googly that went through the defence of Shankar and crashed on his off-stump. This is a special delivery from Chawal and MI must be relieved now as Shankar was batting really well.
Only 7 runs came off the over and wicket. Gujarat Titans need 164 runs in 78 balls.
Nine runs came off Chris Jordan's first over. Gujarat Titans need 171 runs in 84 balls. Vijay Shankar is the key for them in this chase. If David Miller could start firing from the other end, GT will make a comback in the chase.
Vijay Shankar's brisk cameo has been the silver lining for GT in this chase so far. He has scored 27 runs off only 11 balls and is looking in really good touch. Gujarat Titans need 180 runs in 90 balls.
3.5 - Shubman Gill has been cleaned up by Akash Madhwal! GT are three down and in some real trouble. It was a good length ball from Madhwal with pace around 138 kmph, Gill tried to play across the line and show his stumps going for a walk.
2.3 - Hardik Pandya is gone! This is a big blow to GT. They are two down in this big chase against MI. It was a good length ball bowled across the stumps from Jason Behrendorff and Hardik edged it to wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan. MI are off to a dream start!
1.5 - Akash Madhwal has landed the first blow. He trapped Wriddhiman Saha in front of the stumps. Umpire raised his finger and even a review could not save Saha.
Shubman Gill has substituted Mohit Sharma. He opens the batting with Wriddhiman Saha as the duo starts the 219-run chase for Gujarat Titans. Meanwhile, Akash Madhwal has been brought in as impact player for MI. Jason Behrendorff will bowl the first over. Here we go!
Suryakumar Yadav finishes the innings with a six and that also sees him score his maiden IPL century. He gets there in 49 balls. What a knock this is from SKY! We all know what kind of a player he is, but this innings was also better than that. Unreal stuff! 17 runs came off Alzarri Joseph's last over and MI have got a really good total on the board.
Suryakumar Yadav is batting on another planet currently. He hit Mohammed Shami for a six and two fours in the penultimate over. 17 runs came off it and Mumbai Indians have crossed the 200-run mark. Can they go past 220 in the last over? All on Suryakumar Yadav now!
Mohit Sharma was economical in his previous over but not this time! Suryakumar Yadav started the over with a four. Followed it with another before hitting a six on the fourth ball of the over. Surya also hit a four on the last ball of the over.
16.1 - Suryakumar Yadav hits a sweep shot on the bowling of Rashid Khan and he gets to his hal-century in 32 balls. He started the season on a poor note but has made a really good comeback.
11 runs came off the over and a wicket of Tim David.
Just one boundary and four singles off this over. Vishnu Vinod has been consistent for Kerala but kudos to MI for trusting him. Hopefully, he can cap-off a good performance.
A short ball from Alzarri Joseph and Suryakumar Yadav has pulled it beautifully for six. 15 runs came off the over and it will compensate a bit for MI for the 5-run over bowled by Noor Ahmed before this.
Despite losing three wickets so far, Mumbai Indians are going well. However, they need to accelerate from this point as anything less than 200 must be hard to defend on this surface.
9.4 - A freebie from Alzarri Joseph and Suryakumar Yadav accepts the offering. It was a fuller ball slightly outside off stump and all SKY needed was to hit it past the wide mid-off fielder. He did that with ease.
It was a not a wicket-taking delivery to be honest but Rashid has got one. It was a short ball outside off stump, Nehal Wadhera wanted to play it hard on the off-side but an inside edge onto the stumps.
7.5 - This is a brave shot from Nehal Wadhera. He got one into the slot and hit it down the ground for a big six on the bowling of Noor Ahmad. On the next ball, Wadhera took a double as Mumbai Indians got 15 runs off it.
Second wicket of the over for Rashid Khan! He is on fire! This is superb bowling from the Afghanistan's spin wizard. He has changed the state of the game in only 5 balls. Gujarat Titans are back in the match.
How many times we have seen this! Rashid Khan once again comes to the rescue of Gujarat Titans. He has got the wicket of Rohit Sharma. The MI skipper edged the ball to slip and Rahul Tewatia took a sharp catch to end the innings of Rohit.
Ishan Kishan creates room for himself and hits the fuller ball from Noor Ahmad for a four towards the deep mid-wicket. 10 runs came off the over and Mumbai Indians have got off to a really good start at the Wankhede Stadium.
Rohit Sharma had failed to execute the sweep shot. The ball hit his pad and was caught by first slip behind the stumps. Umpire was unconvinced with the appeal and GT went upstairs only to lose a review.
4.4 - Rohit Sharma has played a sweep shot on the bowling of Rashid Khan for a four. There was no deep backward square leg and Rohit played the shot with perfection.
Mohit Sharma has bowled a 7-run over to control the scoring rate of Mumbai Indians a bit. However, this would not work if Gujarat Titans fail to claim a wicket as both Rohit and Kishan are looking in really good touch.
