While Hardik Pandy’s GT are hoping to secure a consecutive title win and second in as many seasons since their inception, Mumbai are a record five-time champion.
In the league phase, GT were clearly the best team, winning 10 out of 14 matches — the only team to do so. While they were the favourites to reach the final, they suffered a 15-run defeat to CSK in Qualifier 1. They will be looking to forget the defeat and win their next two matches to clinch the coveted IPL trophy once again.
For Mumbai, the journey to Qualifier 2 has been quite a fairytale story.
MI lost their first four matches in seven games but roared back with five wins in the last seven matches to reach the playoffs.
They thrashed Lucknow Super Giants by 81 runs in the Eliminator to reach the IPL Qualifier 2.
Having seen their arch-rivals CSK reach the final, MI would want to settle for nothing less than a battle against them in the final.
