Eleminator-1
MI VS GT
The tournament royalty, however, have two opponents on Friday - a resolute Gujarat Titans and history. Never since the introduction of the playoffs system has a team finished fourth and gone on to win the title. 13 of those 14 trophies have been won by the top two sides, and only once has a team taken the longer Eliminator-Qualifier 2 route to glory (SRH from 3rd spot in 2016). But when you win as often and as much as MI do, there's always room for the unthinkable and the unprecedented to happen. Even from fourth, MI will have a champion's strut about themselves after getting there through six successive victories.
