Here are the Live Score and Updates from IPL 2023 Qualifier 2 match between GT and MI, straight from Ahmedabad:
17:47 (IST)
GT vs MI Live: GT’s batting lacks teamwork
It will be imperative for the defending champions that their batting clicks in unison, since Shubman Gill and Vijay Shankar have done bulk of the heavy lifting with the bat in the last few games. The side has enough firepower and it will hope from other batters too to play match-defining knocks.

GT vs MI Live: GT coming on the back of defeat
Gujarat Titans, outclassed and outgunned in Qualifier 1 by Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings, will have one last chance to gather themselves up and put their best foot forward in familiar conditions at the Narendra Modi Stadium in order to qualify for their second IPL final on the trot.

GT vs MI Live: Head-to-head
The contest at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Friday night will be the third meeting between GT and MI this season, with both teams winning one game each. After the Titans crushed MI at this venue by 55 runs in a one-sided game, in their next game, Suryakumar struck his maiden IPL century to power MI to a 27-run win — a margin which could have been a lot bigger had Rashid Khan not smashed a a brutal 32-ball 72. MI lead GT 2-1 in overall head-to-head battle.

GT vs MI Live: MI’s bowling attack getting better
Besides the rise of pace sensation Akash Madhwal, veterans Piyush Chawla (21 wickets in 15 matches) and Jason Behrendorff (14 wickets in 11 matches) have also been impressive, while an otherwise expensive Chris Jordan also enjoyed a fine outing of 2-1-7-1 in the Eliminator. However, the side would also hope for another spinner to click in the Qualifier 2 to give a tough challenge to GT.

GT vs MI Live: Akash Madhwal – the find for MI
Akash Madhwal has been a revelation with the ball. The right-arm bowler returned a dream spell of 3.3-0-5-5 against LSG to put his side into the virtual semifinal after a three-wicket burst that set up victory in their crucial last league game against Sunrisers Hyderabad. His toe-crushing yorkers alongside discipline in attack makes him a good replacement of injured pacer Jasprit Bumrah in the MI team.
Sensational!

GT vs MI Live: A solid batting line-up for MI
The likes of Cameron Green, Suryakumar Yadav and Tim David have responded well to the challenges and now form the backbone of the batting department with the young Nehal Wadhera too making a huge impact, and the opening pair of Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan doing a fair job. It will be a stern test for the Titans’ bowling attack, led by Mohammad Shami (26 wickets in 15 matches), to get the better of MI’s batting, which has improved drastically towards the business end of the tournament.

GT vs MI Live: MI continue to fight with limited resources
MI pride themselves on thriving when the odds are stacked against them, something they have done throughout the season. Having finished last in the previous edition, Rohit Sharma’s team has ground it out this season to remain in contention for a sixth IPL title even with limited resources.
16:15 (IST)
GT vs MI Live: Momentum with Mumbai Indians
Mumbai Indians, riding on magical figures of five for five produced by Madhwal at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday night, knocked out LSG from the race to the final with an 81-run win.
