What is highest successful run chase in Mullanpur? GT's highest run chase
Mumbai Indians have set a daunting 229-run target for Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025 Eliminator at Mullanpur Stadium, Chandigarh. Should Gujarat manage to chase this down, it would mark the highest successful run chase ever against Mumbai Indians in the history of the tournament — a feat that would also propel Shubman Gill's men into Qualifier 2.
The current record for the highest successful chase against MI stands at 196, achieved by Rajasthan Royals back in 2020 in Abu Dhabi. Surpassing that would not only be a historic achievement but also a major statement from Gujarat in this knockout encounter.
What is the highest successful run chase in T20s at Mullanpur Stadium?
Since the Mullanpur Stadium is a relatively new venue with only a handful of T20 matches played, the sample size for run chases remains limited. However, here's a look at the highest successful run chase recorded at this ground in T20 cricket.
Highest successful run chase at Mullanpur Stadium
Match Date Target Result
Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals March 23, 2024 175 PBKS scored 177/6 in 19.2 overs
Baroda vs Mumbai Syed Mushtaq Ali 2023 149 Baroda scored 149/7 in 18.5 overs
Highest successful run chase by Gujarat Titans
Gujarat Titans fans might find the stats a bit discouraging, as the team has managed to chase targets over 200 runs only twice since their debut. However, there is optimism for Shubman Gill's side, especially considering their best-ever successful chase came earlier this season. In IPL 2025 match 60 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi Capitals posted 199 runs batting first. In response, Gujarat Titans pulled off a remarkable 10-wicket victory, led by Sai Sudharsan's century and a strong partnership with Gill.
Adding to their confidence, the Titans' second-highest run chase also came this season—against the same opponent. On April 19, 2024, they successfully chased 204 runs against Delhi Capitals. With two massive chases already in the bag this year, Gujarat now has a golden opportunity to set a new benchmark by chasing down their highest-ever total in IPL history. Here's a look at their complete list of top chases.

Ricky Ponting supports Jasprit Bumrah exclusion, calls BCCI's decision ‘spot on': 'I think the timing is right...'
The BCCI selection committee's decision to name Shubman Gill as the captain ahead of the experienced Jasprit Bumrah, who even led India in two Tests during the recent Australia tour, did not sit well with many experts. However, former Australia captain Ricky Ponting jumped to the defence of the BCCI, saying that the decision was absolutely spot on and that the timing to bring in Gill couldn't have been better. The Test captaincy was Bumrah's for the taking, having led India thrice before, including twice in Australia in the last season, where India won in Perth in the absence of regular captain Rohit Sharma. However, a back injury in the Sydney Test, which later saw him miss the Champions Trophy, left the selectors concerned and subsequently dented his chances of taking over the reins in Test cricket. Speaking on the ICC Review, Ponting said BCCI was right in naming Gill as the captain because he felt India shouldn't have a captain who could be missing matches repeatedly due to injuries. He also urged the selectors to give Gill a lengthy rope as a captain. "I actually think it's the right move. I know there's a lot of other people out there, pundits out there saying they can't understand why it wasn't Bumrah and why they have gone to Shubman, but I think it's pretty simple," Ponting said. "Bumrah's injuries are holding him back a bit in the last couple of years and you don't want that with a captain. You can't have a captain coming in and missing games here and there. So I think it's the right decision. Now that they've made it, it's one they've got to stick with and give him a good crack at it for a long period of time." Having seen Gill from close quarters in IPL, where the youngster has been leading the Gujarat Titans squad since 2024, Ponting felt the timing to name him the Test captain couldn't have been better. "Even just looking back at the way he's handled this current GT team through this IPL, I think leadership sits really well with him," Ponting said. "And the important thing for me with leadership as well is if you're a batter and you're a captain, you have to be scoring runs. And Shubman is doing that in IPL and I think the timing is right. I think you'll have a good captain who'll make a lot of Test runs going forward."

Virat Kohli to revoke Test retirement and make a comeback? Michael Clarke's bold prediction sparks buzz
After the high-octane Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 final, the focus now shifts to the upcoming five-match Test series between India and England. The Indian Test squad has flown to England to begin preparations for the new cycle of the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025–27. As anticipation builds for the series—set to begin on June 20 at Headingley—the team will undoubtedly feel the absence of legends Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. However, former Australian captain Michael Clarke has made a bold prediction, suggesting that Kohli might come out of retirement and make a comeback. Virat Kohli to make a Test comeback? The 'King' stepped away from red-ball cricket on May 12, bringing an end to an illustrious 14-year career in the format. In over 123 Tests, he scored 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, with 30 centuries and 31 half-centuries to his name. While he recently also helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) get their first-ever IPL title, Kohli admitted that the triumph still pales in comparison to the emotional weight of Test cricket. Michael Clarke believes that if India suffers a heavy defeat in the upcoming series—potentially even a 5-0 whitewash—the pressure from fans and the broader cricketing community could push Virat Kohli to reconsider his Test retirement. Speaking on the Beyond23 Cricket podcast, Clarke reflected on Kohli's deep love for the traditional format. He suggested that if Indian cricket hits a rough patch during the England series, there's a genuine chance Kohli could be persuaded to return—provided the selectors, captain, and fans are behind the idea. "If India gets hammered in England—say they lose 5-0—I wouldn't be surprised if there's a strong public push for Kohli to return," Clarke said. "He's still passionate about Test cricket. If there's a call from the captain, selectors, and fan support, I think he'd seriously consider it." Clarke also spoke about the simultaneous retirement of Rohit Sharma, calling him a sharp tactician and praising his leadership. "With Rohit stepping away from Tests and Kohli too, it's a huge loss for red-ball cricket," Clarke noted. "Test cricket will undoubtedly miss both of them." Michael Clarke on the stampede in Bengaluru The former Aussie legend also expressed his heartfelt condolences to the families affected by the tragic stampede that occurred outside the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Wednesday, June 4, during RCB's IPL 2025 victory celebrations. Reflecting on the incident, the former Australian captain emphasized the importance of safety during large public gatherings. "It's devastating. Hopefully, we never see something like this again," Clarke said. "Fans and players should be able to celebrate such moments together, but it has to be done safely. My thoughts are with all the families affected. It was a tragic end to what had been an incredible season."

Shreyas Iyer 'Officially Joins India's White-Ball Captaincy' Race: Report
Last Updated: Shreyas Iyer's impressive performance as Punjab Kings captain in IPL 2025 has now helped him officially join India's white-ball captaincy race. Shreyas Iyer was in red-hot form for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, and he maintained his performance for Punjab Kings as well in the recently concluded 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League. The right-handed batter from Mumbai, who finished as India's leading run getter in the ICC event played from February 19 to March 19 in three venues across Pakistan and one in Dubai, amassed a total of 604 runs in 17 matches for Punjab Kings. Apart from his batting masterclass, Iyer made headlines for his leadership as well and captained Punjab Kings to their first IPL final since 2014. Unfortunately, Iyer failed to win his second straight IPL title as captain, but he did enough to catch attention, and according to a report in Indian Express on Saturday (June 7), he has now officially joined India's white-ball captaincy race. 'Right now he just plays ODIs, but after this IPL we can't keep him out of T20 internationals and even Tests. Plus, he also has now officially joined the white-ball captaincy race," one of Indian cricket's influential decision-makers was quoted as saying by Indian Express. Iyer, who has played 14 Tests, 70 ODIs and 51 T20Is so far, last played a Test match for India in February 2024, and his last T20I appearance was against Australia in December 2023. Iyer, who led Kolkata Knight Riders to the IPL 2024 title last year, has made a big name for himself as captain in domestic cricket, but he has never got a chance to captain the Indian men's team in any format of the game. It was expected that he would be considered for a place in India's Test team for the upcoming five-match series against England after the retirements of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, but he was ignored by the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee. Iyer's absence from the 18-member squad came as a surprise for fans around the world. Iyer, who is playing for SoBo Mumbai Falcons in T20 Mumbai 2025 these days, will next take the field for Team India in August 2025 when the Men in Blue travel to Bangladesh for three-match ODI and three-match T20I series.
