Match details

Fixture: Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians
Date & Time: May 1, 2025, 7:30 PM IST
Venue: Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur 

MI Probable XI 

Ryan Rickelton (wk), Rohit Sharma, Will Jacks, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (capt), Naman Dhir, Corbin Bosch, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Karn Sharma.

MI are likely to continue with the same playing XI. Mitchell Santner’s injury remains a big concern, and because of that, they are most likely to stick with Corbin Bosch. He did well enough on his debut to get another chance. 

Hence, Ryan Rickelton will open alongside the veteran Rohit Sharma. Then, Will Jacks is expected at number three, followed by Suryakumar Yadav at number four and Tilak Varma at number five. After that, skipper Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir will handle the finishing duties. 

Bosch is expected to make the same impact as he did in the last game, scoring runs at a good rate and chipping in with the ball. Deepak Chahar and Trent Boult will lead the pace attack, while Karn Sharma will be the primary spinner. Jasprit Bumrah, once again, is set to come in as the impact player.           

Head-to-Head record   

So far, 29 IPL matches have been played between these two sides, and the competition has been quite neck-and-neck. Rajasthan Royals (RR) have won 14 times, while Mumbai Indians (MI) have won 15 times. In the last five encounters, RR have won three matches, while MI have won two. However, this will be their first clash of the season.
