'We will always fight through': How MI's winning mentality showed in IPL 2025 Eliminator win over GT
Mumbai Indians' winning culture showed as they beat Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025 Eliminator on Friday. Head coach Mahela Jayawardene credited senior players like Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and Hardik Pandya for instilling the never-give-up mentality. They will face Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2 on Sunday. read more Mumbai Indians (MI) are one of the most successful teams in IPL history. They proved this again on Friday, when they defeated Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025 Eliminator and kept their hopes of winning a record-breaking sixth title alive. The team will now face Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2, and if they win that, they will reach the final. MI head coach Mahela Jayawardene has said that a big reason behind the team's strong mindset is their core of senior Indian players like Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, and Suryakumar Yadav. He said that the team has a winning culture and that comes mainly from those who have been part of MI for years. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'Winning mentality comes from the senior players' Jayawardene explained that it's easier to carry forward a winning culture when you already have experienced players who know how to handle pressure and win games in tough situations. In MI's do-or-die game against GT, senior players like Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah stepped up and delivered when it mattered the most. Mumbai Indians scored a big total of 228/5 against Gujarat Titans, with Rohit Sharma playing a brilliant knock of 81 runs. But in the second innings, Mumbai found themselves in some trouble. After losing a couple of early wickets, Gujarat batters started to settle in and made the chase look possible. Sai Sudharsan and Washington Sundar built an important partnership and MI were badly in need of a wicket. That is when Jasprit Bumrah came back into the attack and gave Mumbai a big breakthrough by removing Sundar. 'Well, when you have a winning culture, it is easier to try and have that same thing going through. Even when you get a new group, we still have a very experienced co-group within our ranks. So, the conversations that we have, planning and everything is about, how can we get better, how can we push through,' he said. 'That winning mentality itself comes through from those senior players and having that experience, guys who have won trophies does help and my job is to try and cultivate that for the new guys who are coming into the spot,' Jayawardene added. MI's never-give-up attitude The former Sri Lanka captain said that the conversations within the team are always about how to get better and how to push through tough situations. Jayawardene added that his role is to pass on that mentality to the new players who joined after the big auction this year. 'After the big auction, we had quite a few new faces, but I think telling them about the history of Mumbai and how we go, how we operate and have that attitude that we will never die from a situation, we will always fight through. So, I think that is shown today,' Jayawardene said. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Can MI do it again? Mumbai Indians are now just one step away from another IPL 2025 final. If they beat Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2 on Sunday (1 June), they will face Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the final on 3 June. MI reached Qualifier 2 after a 20-run win over GT on Friday. MI had finished fourth on the IPL 2025 points table.

Jasprit Bumrah, Rahul Tewatia engage in heated exchange during IPL 2025 Eliminator
A high-stakes IPL 2025 Eliminator between and Gujarat Titans took an intense turn on Friday, not just for the cricket but for a fiery mid-pitch exchange between and . While Mumbai sealed a thrilling 20-run win to book a spot in Qualifier 2 against Punjab Kings, the moment between the two Indian players became a talking point. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. The flashpoint came in the 18th over of Gujarat's tense run chase. Tewatia launched Bumrah for a massive six over deep mid-wicket, sending a jolt through MI's camp. But the very next delivery saw a swing and a miss, followed by another failed attempt where Tewatia only managed a leg bye. As he rushed to the non-striker's end, he muttered something under his breath — words that seemingly irked Bumrah. The usually composed MI spearhead was caught on stump mic, saying, 'Mereko mat bol (Don't say it to me),' making it clear he took the remark personally. Tewatia, caught off guard, quickly clarified: 'Main tereko nahi bol raha hoon, main khud ko bol raha (I wasn't talking to you, I was saying it to myself).' Mahela Jayawardene on Rohit Sharma: 'You cannot replace the experience' Thankfully, the moment didn't spiral further. Bumrah returned to his mark without escalating the issue, and Tewatia too kept his focus on the game. The brief exchange highlighted the intensity of knockout cricket — where emotions often run high, even between country mates.

Sidheshwar Shirsath, centre, sits with his wife, Manisha, and their son, Soham, 6, as they examine gold jewelry in their Mumbai home. Shirsath, who works as a driver, began buying the jewelry nine years ago as a solid investment for his family's future. In recent months, the price of gold has skyrocketed.
Sidheshwar Shirsath, who lives in the suburbs of India's financial capital, Mumbai, first started buying gold when he got married nine years ago. Shirsath, 35, works as a driver and earns about 55,000 rupees ($889 Cdn) a month. He decided that gold might be a good way to build a nest egg for his family's future. Whenever he had some cash to spend, he purchased gold jewelry, including rings and bangles, and he now has about 130 grams of gold, worth more than one million rupees ($16,000 Cdn). "Sometime after I first bought gold, the rates started increasing, so my interest in investing in it also grew," Shirsath said. In recent months — to his delight — the price has skyrocketed. Gold globally was trading at $3,298 US an ounce on Friday morning, up more than 25 per cent since the start of the year, and up 42 per cent compared with a year ago. Gold's value globally has surged amid global economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions, including concerns about the impact of U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policy. The precious metal is often seen as a "safe haven" asset that investors flock to during periods of economic turbulence. In India, the price has risen even more sharply and is up 30 per cent since the beginning of the year — with the additional increase driven by the rupee's depreciation against the American dollar. But for many Indians, like Shirsath, gold is more than an investment. "Gold is very close to Indian women," he said, his wife, Manisha, sitting next to him in their modest home, adorned with a heavy gold choker and gleaming bangles. "They need gold — especially for festivals and weddings." In India, gold is primarily purchased it in the form of jewelry because it can be a way of showing off one's wealth and status. The precious metal also holds enormous religious and cultural significance. It is part of the dowry in weddings, for example, and it is considered to be auspicious to buy gold during certain Hindu festivals. "India is a very unique market for gold ," said Sachin Jain, regional CEO, India, for the World Gold Council, a global industry association. "Gold is a part of the social fabric, and you don't need to be in any particular economic strata to consume gold. "We all in India have a family doctor, so to say, and we have a family jeweller." In rural India, where most of the country's 1.4 billion people still live — and with many not having easy access to bank accounts — gold is a popular way of storing savings, Jain said. All of this means that India is one of the world's largest consumers of gold, with the country's demand for the precious metal hitting about 800 tonnes a year. The steep price, however, is having an impact on the quantity of the metal that people are buying. "With jewelry consumption, whenever the price of gold goes up, the consumer waits and watches," Jain said. "The moment it gets a bit settled, we see consumers come back." The World Gold Council's data shows that demand for gold in India in the first three months of this year stood at 118.1 tonnes, down by 15 per cent compared with the first quarter of last year. But because the price is up, the value of the country's gold demand — which is the quantity of gold that is bought or invested — in the first quarter of this year actually rose by 22 per cent, to reach 940 billion rupees ($15.1 billion Cdn). "People are buying lower quantities," said Colin Shah, managing director of Kama Jewelry, a Mumbai-based manufacturer. "They all have budgets. If someone has $2,000 to spend, they'll spend that and buy a lower volume." But, he said, that gold has by no means lost its shine, despite its high price. "In India, there is a culture of gold, and nobody is going to stop buying gold because of pricing," Shah said. "Actually, they'll have more confidence in the category due to the return they are making on their money." With Indians' appetite to own gold showing no signs of easing, the government in recent years has taken a series of steps to try to ensure that gold is brought into the formal economy. These include lowering the import duty on gold last year to six per cent from 15 per cent, partly as a way of making it less attractive for people to smuggle gold into the country to avoid paying high taxes. The government also offers sovereign gold bonds as an alternative to physical gold. The World Gold Council's Jain said that Indians are increasingly investing in gold digitally, for example, through exchange-traded funds (ETFs) — and the price surge has only encouraged people to look at these options. "The young generation is getting more and more savvy, and with the ease of technology, we believe that investment into gold and gold assets is going to get a little more digital," he said. Gold investment demand, including ETFs, rose by seven per cent in India to 46.7 tonnes in the first quarter, according to the World Gold Council. JPMorgan forecasts that the price of gold could hit $4,000 US an ounce next year. Shirsath said that he and his family have more than enough jewelry now, but he still wants to keep buying gold. "My next plan is to buy gold coins or go for bonds."
