New Mumbai,13,JAN,2026,(India Today News CA):- MI setting a target of 193 after Gujarat’s batters faced a challenging finish. Here’s a concise breakdown to place that claim in context.
- Match context
- In IPL or similar competitions, teams chasing often rely on late hitting to recover or chase down large targets. If Gujarat’s bowlers were under pressure in the final overs, Mumbai Indians could have accelerated to push the total beyond 180 or near 193, depending on the innings.
- A target of 193 typically implies a high-scoring finish where batters needed to score quickly in the death overs.
- Possible interpretations
- The phrase “batting made the bowlers look like ghosts in the last two overs” suggests Gujarat Titans or Gujarat’s batting in a chase or finish period tilted the advantage toward the chasing side, with MI conceding a sizable late-overs burst.
- “MI set a target of 193” would be the result of Mumbai Indians posting 192 or 193 on the board after their inn
