The high-octane IPL 2026 Match 30 between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Narendra Modi Stadium is surrounded by intense speculation regarding the fitness of key superstars. As the Mumbai Indians struggle to keep their season alive on Monday, April 20, 2026, they have received a massive shot in the arm with the return of their talismanic opener. Meanwhile, the Gujarat Titans are closely monitoring their own international stars to maintain their winning momentum. Here is the latest injury and fitness bulletin from both camps ahead of Match 30.
Rohit Sharma – Playing Today After Hamstring Scare
Mumbai Indians fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Rohit Sharma is officially fit to take the field tonight. The former MI skipper missed the previous encounter against the Punjab Kings due to a hamstring strain suffered during the match against the RCB. However, MI bowling coach Paras Mhambrey confirmed in the pre-match press conference that Rohit has completed his recovery.
Rohit was seen playing his signature pull shots during the Sunday evening practice session, and he is expected to open the innings alongside Quinton de Kock, who is coming off a sensational century.
Jos Buttler – Set To Lead GT’s Charge At The Top
There were minor concerns regarding Jos Buttler’s workload management, but the English wicketkeeper-batter is fully fit and will feature in today’s XI. Buttler has been a vital cog in the Gujarat Titans’ machine, providing explosive starts alongside Shubman Gill. He took part in the full training session at the Narendra Modi Stadium without any visible discomfort. GT’s medical team has cleared him to play, and he will continue to handle the gloves behind the stumps.
Jasprit Bumrah – Available But Under The Spotlight
While there are no physical injury concerns for Jasprit Bumrah, his lack of wickets has been a major talking point. Bumrah is 100% fit and will lead the MI pace attack today. However, he has gone wicketless in his last five matches, a rare slump for the world’s premier fast bowler. Despite rumours of him being rested to “reset,” coach Hardik Pandya is expected to stick with his ace, hoping the Ahmedabad surface, which traditionally offers some early bounce, will help Bumrah find his rhythm.
