    While Ishant\u2019s numbers may not scream dominance, his consistent knack for breaking crucial partnerships<\/strong>\u2014particularly against big-hitting sides like MI\u2014makes him a strategic inclusion. His experience becomes invaluable in pressure situations, and at a venue like Ahmedabad that offers occasional seam movement under lights, he could prove to be a key weapon for GT.<\/p>\n

    Ishant at Narendra Modi Stadium \u2013 IPL Insight:<\/h3>\n

    Though Ishant hasn\u2019t featured frequently at this venue, the conditions suit his strength of extracting early swing and using seam variations effectively. With MI chasing a steep target of 197 and already a wicket down, Ishant\u2019s spell could shape the outcome of this high-stakes encounter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
