After a brief break, the match resumed, but rain returned, halting play for the second time. As a result, the fans at the stadium anxiously awaited updates as the match's fate hung in the balance. With the rain disrupting play, the DLS (Duckworth-Lewis-Stern) method may come into effect. Under the DLS rules, if play resumes, Gujarat Titans will need to chase a revised target of 99 runs in 14 overs. This target is set to ensure that both teams have an equal opportunity, despite the reduced number of overs. Mumbai Indians, batting first, posted a total of 155/8 in 20 overs. Will Jacks top-scored with a brilliant 53 from 35 balls, while Suryakumar Yadav made a quick-fire 35 off 24 balls. However, a flurry of wickets in the middle overs stifled Mumbai's momentum. Arshad Khan and Rashid Khan were among the key wicket-takers for Gujarat, with both bowlers claiming one scalp each. Gujarat Titans, in reply, were 107/2 in 14 overs when rain intervened. Shubman Gill remained unbeaten on 38 runs, with support from Jos Buttler (30 off 27 balls) and Sherfane Rutherford (26 off 12 balls). The revised target now stands at 99 runs in 14 overs, and with the rain delay, the result of this match hinges on the final outcome once play resumes.
