IPL 2025: When is RR’s Next Match? All you need to know about their Opponent, Probable XI, & head-to-head stats

Rajasthan Royals (RR) registered a thumping win over Gujarat Titans (GT) in their last game of the ongoing IPL 2025, thanks to a scintillating knock of 101 runs off just 38 balls from the 14-year-old sensation, Vaibhav Suryavanshi. This incredible performance helped RR secure a much-needed victory and lifted their spirits. As a result, RR now sit in eighth place on the points table with six points from 10 games, holding a net run rate of -0.349.

While the chances of qualifying for the playoffs are very slim for RR, the massive win over GT has certainly given them a major boost. They will be eager to build on this momentum when they play their next game in front of their home crowd. However, it won’t be an easy task as their next challenge is against the in-form Mumbai Indians (MI).

MI are flying high at the moment, having registered five consecutive wins. They are currently placed second on the points table with 12 points from 10 games and boast a strong net run rate of +0.899. With the form MI are showing, it promises to be a tough battle for RR, but the Royals will be hoping to put up a spirited fight and keep their slim playoff hopes alive.
