Mumbai's 99-run win wasn't forecast. The Indians had lost four in a row, Rohit Sharma was still unfit, they picked two debutants, and were 44-3 in the powerplay.
But Tilak Varma's unbeaten 45-ball 101 gave his bowlers something to defend, and they defended 199-5 in rousing style.
Left-arm fast bowler Ashwani Kumar and impact substitute took 4-24, Mitchell Santner 2-16, and spinner AM Ghazanfar 2-17.
Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya took a wicket each in the powerplay as Gujarat's stacked top order of Sai Sudharsan, captain Shubman Gill, Jos Buttler, Washington Sundar and Glenn Phillips were blown away inside eight overs and reduced to 55-5 on their home ground.
The Titans were all out inside 16 overs and their three-win streak was crushed.
