Mumbai Indians continued their dominant run in IPL 2025, securing their sixth consecutive victory with a 100-run win over Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur. The defeat officially knocked RR out of the playoffs race, while MI moved closer to securing a top-four finish.
Batting first, Mumbai Indians posted a massive 217/2 on the scoreboard. Openers Rohit Sharma (53 off 36 balls) and Ryan Rickelton (61 off 38 balls) set the tone with a 116-run stand, dismantling RR’s bowling attack. Later, Suryakumar Yadav (48 off 23) and Hardik Pandya (48 off 23)** accelerated the innings, ensuring MI crossed the 200-run mark.
In response, Rajasthan Royals crumbled under pressure, managing only 117 runs in 16.1 overs. Their chase never gained momentum, with Vaibhav Suryavanshi (0 off 2) falling early, followed by Yashasvi Jaiswal (13) and Shimron Hetmyer (6). Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult led MI’s bowling attack, dismantling RR’s batting lineup with precision.
This victory marks MI’s first win against RR in Jaipur since 2012, breaking a streak of four consecutive losses at the venue. With seven wins from 11 matches, MI is now on the brink of securing a playoff spot.
