It needed a special effort to dismiss the dangerous-looking RCB captain Rajat Patidar, and that’s exactly what happened. On the last ball of Trent Boult’s final over (19th over), Patidar tried to scoop the ball but mistimed it. The ball went high in the air, and Ryan Rickelton ran back and took a stunning diving catch to dismiss Patidar for 62 off 32 balls. Boult picked up his second wicket.
Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya won the toss against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 20th game of the IPL 2025 at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. Hardik announced the return of Jasprit Bumrah and Rohit Sharma, while RCB went with the same squad.
Mumbai Indians: Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah, Vignesh Puthur
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Phil Salt, Virat Kohli, Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma, Tim David, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal
Phil Salt and Virat Kohli come to open the inning for RCB. However, Trent Boult gave the home team a great start with the wicket of Salt on the second ball of the inning, but later, Kohli and new batter Devdutt Padikkal showcased the counterpunch with amazing hitting. At the end of the power play, RCB smashed 73 runs with the loss of 1 wicket. Both continued their attack after the power play. However, MI’s find of this year, Vignesh Puthur, gets Padikkal on 37 runs off 22 balls, and Hardik Pandya removes Virat Kohli on 67 runs off 42 balls and Liam Livingstone on a 2-ball duck in the same over to bring MI back into the game.
The captain, Rajat Patidar, and Jitesh Sharma showcased amazing hitting at the end to take RCB’s total to 221 in 20 overs. Patidar scored 64 runs off 32 balls, and Jitesh Sharma smashed an unbeaten 40 runs off 19 balls, including 2 sixes and 4 fours.
