He hits the next full toss along the ground for a single in the covers before Rickelton slaps the spinner through the covers for the third four of the over.

A huge appeal for leg before wicket against Rickelton who misses the clip off his pads. Theekshana is very confident and pleads with his captain to take the review.

Wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel walks up to Riyan Parag and the two have a discussion before deciding against the review and rightly so as the ball had pitched outside the line of leg stump.

Farooqi gets revenge off the last ball. The change of pace does the trick as Rohit plays all over the full delivery and is given out leg before wicket.

Rohit is not convinced but somehow his partner makes his take the review at the very last second.

Lucky escape for Rohit as the ball has pitched outside the line of leg stump and the decision is overturned. He almost didn't review that.

MI 2-0 (1 ov) vs RR | Scorecard

This is the 50th match of IPL 2025. Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton walk out to open the batting for MI, while Jofra Archer will start off with the ball for Royals.

Bumrah vs Suryavanshi as MI face RR

Vaibhav Suryavanshi

Welcome to the coverage of the IPL 2025 match between Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Thursday.

Rajasthan Royals will turn up against Mumbai Indians with renewed vigour as they aim to halt the five-time champions' surging momentum in IPL 2025.

With 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi potentially playing the knock of the tournament on Monday, the Royals have found a ray of hope in what has been an IPL campaign of missed opportunities.

Having put bowlers of international repute to the sword, it would be interesting to see how southpaw Suryavanshi fares against World's best bowler Jasprit Bumrah.

A side strain to skipper Sanju Samson paved the way of Suryavanshi's debut and it only took him three innings to become the talking point of the cricketing world with a sensational 35-ball century against Gujarat Titans.

For Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians, the return of Bumrah has coincided with their ascent to the top of the table. The perennial slow starters have now collected five wins on the bounce and look unstoppable.

One of the positives for MI in the previous game was the performance of debutant Corbin Bosch who scored at a strike rate of 200 besides taking a wicket.

With likes of Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma back at their best, MI seem to be peaking at the right time, an ominous sign for the opposition teams.
