IPL 2017: Match 35: Here is GL's likely Playing XI against MI

The way Aaron Finch fired against Bangalore would have boosted the morale of the side as they finally seem to have found the right team combination.

Andrew Tye and skipper Suresh Raina's consistent performances are also good signs for the team, which was in great form last year.

James Faulkner and Tye with their variations in bowling along with two T20 dashers like Brendon McCullum and Finch at the top of the order is proving to be helpful for the Lions.

But Gujarat have a daunting task at their hand if they wish to make it to the top four and that's by winning all their remaining games.

Youngsters have also performing well for Gujarat and therefore they must stick to the same winning combination. But their wounds of humilianting defeat against Mumbai Indians - when they last met - would become fresh on Saturday. Gujarat would also want to take the revenge of the previous loss at the hands of Mumbai.


Here is the likely Gujarat XI against Mumbai for tonight's encounter:

1. Ishan Kishan

2. Brendon McCullum

3. Suresh Raina (C)

4. Aaron Finch

5. Dinesh Karthik (wk)

6. Ravindra Jadeja

7. James Faulkner

8. Andrew Tye

9. Basil Thampi

10. Nathu Singh

11. Shadab Jakati


Gujarat Squad: Suresh Raina (captain), Akshadeep Nath, Shubham Agarwal, Basil Thampi, Dwayne Smith, Chirag Suri, James Faulkner, Aaron Finch, Manpreet Gonly, Ishan Kishan, Ravindra Jadeja, Shadab Jakati, Dinesh Karthik (wicketkeeper), Dhawal Kulkarni, Praveen Kumar, Brendon McCullum, Pradeep Sangwan, Jason Roy, Jaydev Shah, Shelly Shaurya, Nathu Singh, Tejas Baroka and Andrew Tye.
