Despite their late struggle, they held onto their nerves to restrict RCB to 180.
Gujarat Giants would look to gain some momentum against a strong Mumbai Indians attack. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians would love to win to move to the top of the points table.

Pitch Report
The pitch promises to be a good batting paradise. After the initial stages, it becomes tough to bat on as the ball keeps lower and does not make for good strokes.
The captain that wins the toss would likely bat first, put on a total, and then restrict the opponent.
