Krunal Pandya to Bumrah, no run, drifting in towards leg-stump, Bumrah swings across the line but misses and is struck on the pads. RCB conquer Wankhede after a gap of 10 years
Mumbai Indians under Hardik Pandya will face Royal Challengers Bengaluru under Rajat Patidar at Wankhede Stadium for their IPL 2025 match on Monday. Mumbai Indians who won five IPL titles currently occupy eighth position in the table after a single victory among their four games whereas Royal Challengers Bengaluru maintain third place with four points gained in their opening IPL 2025 matches.
The Mumbai Indians received their best news from this season when pace superstar Jasprit Bumrah confirmed his availability to play in the IPL after a prolonged rehabilitation from injury. The recovery of their leading pacer following his Border-Gavaskar Trophy lower back injury will make their pace attack stronger with Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult and newcomer Ashwani Kumar. Ashwani could miss selection as the team needs Bumrah to replace him in the starting lineup. Impact Sub will most likely be Vignesh Puthur. The future participation of Rohit Sharma remains uncertain because he did not play the last match due to a knee injury sustained during a net session.

Hazlewood to Rickelton, out Lbw!! Not a confident review from RCB, but they look cock-a-hoop. That typical in-between length from Hazlewood. Not too full. Not too short. In that channel on leg stump and he got the ball to nip away ever so slightly. Rickelton wanted to have a free swing on the leg-side and was also denied for room. The ball stays a touch low and hits him around the knee roll. A belated review from Rajat and it proved to be a good one. Hitting the top of middle and leg according to ball tracker.
Bhuvneshwar to Rickelton, FOUR, whoa! What timing. Just a push from Rickelton and he timed it well enough to get the ball racing past the diving fielder at mid-on

Boult to Rajat Patidar, out Caught by Rickelton!! Is that the catch of the season so far? Has to be one the best.

He was denied for room and ended up getting more height than distance

Hardik Pandya to Rajat Patidar, SIX, fifty for the RCB skipper. He gets a juicy full delivery at 127ks, Patidar clears his front leg and smokes it back over the bowler's head to claim a 25-ball 50. He raises his bat and soaks in all the applause from the crowd....

Hardik Pandya to Livingstone, out Caught by Bumrah!! A two-ball duck for Liam Livingstone. Looks to play the scoop again and was caught in a tangle. He shuffled miles outside off stump and took the eyes off the ball at the last moment. It was short from Hardik and hurried Livingstone for pace
