U Mumba ended their hot-and-cold campaign with a defeat and will probably need to add more firepower to the squad in the summer. Their raider Ajith Kumar did however pick up a Super 10 (11 points) in the match.

Gujarat controlled the game right from the beginning and got Mumbai ALL OUT in the 7th minute. The Giants continue to dominate Mumbai and ended the first half with scores of 19-14. 

Gujarat clinched another ALL OUT in the first move of the second half to open a 9-point lead. However, Mumbai finally woke up and started closing in on Gujarat. They inflicted an ALL OUT and sensed a possible comeback in the final minutes of the play. 

But the Gujarat defence understood the importance of the win and kept calm to clinch a win and a place in the playoffs.
