It was a perfect thriller between the Indians of Mumbai and Royal Challengers Bengaluru in IPL 2025 Monday. By obtaining an invitation to beat first, RCB displayed 221 for 5, then stopped mid to 209 for 9. The match went down with RCB emerging as winners. While the team led by Rajat Patidar stayed in third place after the victory, MI managed by Hardik also stayed at the number 8 position. Lucknow Super Giants, Nicholas Poornan, continues to hold the orange cap with 201 points from 4 games. In the list of counters of the counters, Hhelik Pandya equaled the count of Noor Ahmad of 10 counters.
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru survived a huge fear of the Indians of Mumbai Doughty to end their sequence of six games without victory at the Wankhede stadium with a 12 -point victory in the Indian Premier League on Monday.
Setting an intimidating objective of 222, the Mumbai Indians organized a superb late recovery to light the tables on their opponents, but the task proved to be too difficult at the end for the hosts, who have not lost a match in Mumbai against RCB since 2015.
The Mumbai Indians were in shock at the age of 99 for four, their prosecution collapsed with the dismissal of Suryakumar Yadav (28), but the skipper Hardy Pandya (42 out of 15 balls) and Tilak Varma (56 on 29 balls) launched a dizzying overview to bring them back to the competition.
Hardik went hammer and clips while hitting three four and four, while Tilak also fought in shape, but the target proved far too much for the Mumbai Indians who were again ordinary with the bat for a large part in their prosecution.
Rohit Sharma (17 years old) was cleaned by Yash Dayal (2/46) while he was swaying through an Inswing delivery and the best Mi Suryakumar striker fought during his 28 -point stroke for which he consumed 26 balls.
On the other hand, Tilak spoke of his young daughter fifty from the season of 26 balls to make a return after being withdrawn in the last match.
The fortunes changed when Hhelik hung two six and as much to four of his first four bullets off Krunal Pandya in the 14th.
Before Hardik stands out, Tilak had run at 30 out of 15 bullets to keep the weak hopes of Mi alive, which continued to improve with each blow that the triggered strikers.
The demand rate had spent a passer-by beyond 15 years, but Mi continued to clean the strings to stay in hunting. But Tilak fell into the 18th of Bhuvnehwar Kumar (1/48) and Hardik in the penultimate of Josh Hazlewood (2/37).
In the final, Mi needed 19 points to win, but Krunal Pandya (4/45) took three counters to close their doors.
Earlier, RCB rose to the 1950s of Virat Kohli (67) and the Skipper Rajat Patidar (64) to display 221 for five.
Kohli reigned over the perch with a 42-ball 67 which gave an early RCB momentum in the return game of Jasprit Bumrah (0/29). Later, the 32-ball 64 of Patidar (5x4s, 4x6s) and the 19-ball 40 (2x4s, 4x6s) of Jitesh Sharma assured that the RCB ended on a flamboyant note.
Phil Salt (4) played through the line to an Inswinger by Trent Boult (2/57). Imalized by the early blow, RCB recorded its highest power score against Mumbai Indians by scoring 72/1, while Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal (37 on 22 balls) made the flamboyant all firearms.
The momentum had influenced the RCB path before MI introduced Bumrah into the fourth, and Kohli welcomed his India teammate with a six on Midwicket.
Passing through almost 10 at most, RCB collected 20 points from the final in the Powerplay of Deepak Chahar while Padikkal had torn the bowling player in India, hitting two six and a four.
Padikkal was severe on any Mi queror who made an error over its length, breaking three six and two before being caught with the vineshur strings in the ninth. At that time, however, he added 91 points on 52 bullets with Kohli for the second window.
Kohli was a significant success with the bat at the Wankhede Stadium and Monday was not different – if he started with some unconvincing borders, his exquisite driving through the Boult covers in the third plus showed that he was standing for a big blow.
Having carried out 13,000 points to move to an unknown territory for any Indian in the format in just over 400 games, a century appeared on the horizon.
But, in the 15th, Kohli unusually crossed the fold to lift Hardik on the side of the leg and found Naman Dhir in deep midwicket, while his sleeves ended with two six and eight four.
Patidar raised its only fifty 25 bullets. He hit the skipper of Mi Hardya for 23 points in 17th. His sleeves ended with the penultimate when a higher edge was seized near the strings by a Ryan Rickelton diving in what was one of the most spectacular captures of this IPL season.
