In a commanding exhibition of power-hitting and well-disciplined bowling, Mumbai Indians crushed Rajasthan Royals by 100 runs in the 50th match of the IPL 2025 at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur. So Let’s take a look at RR vs MI 50th Match Highlights of IPL 2025.

Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians Match Highlights

Rickelton-Rohit Launch, SKY-Hardik Finish: MI Posts Towering 217/2

Pursuing to bat first, MI scored a monumental 217/2 from 20 overs, led by explosive innings by Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya, both remaining not out on 48s with a strike rate of more than 200.

The platform was laid by opener Ryan Rickelton, who scored 61 off a very 38 balls, and Rohit Sharma, who chipped in with an open 53. The duo put on 116 for the opening stand, setting the tone for the match. After they got out one after the other, Suryakumar and Hardik took charge, taking it to the finish in the last few overs to take MI to over 200.

With the bowling, Rajasthan’s bowlers had a forgetful night, with Theekshana 1/47 and Farooqi 0/54 being among the most expensive.

Royals Crumble Under Pressure: Skittled for 117 Chasing 218

Running behind a mammoth 218, Rajasthan never stood in the mix. They early lost Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the first over, and were back in trouble in 47/5 within five overs. There were only three double-digit batsmen from among the lower-order batsmen. Jofra Archer 30, and Shubham Dubey along with 3 other batsmen, while all the top-order batsmen got out cheaply. The Royals finally collapsed to just 117 in 16.1 overs.

MI bowlers were clinical. Trent Boult returned to his former franchise with figures of 3/28 as Jasprit Bumrah 2/15 and Karn Sharma 03/23 tore through the middle and lower order. Hardik Pandya also contributed with a neat over, taking a wicket and allowing only two runs.

The victory greatly increases Mumbai Indians’ net run rate and puts them at the peak of the table, while it will be the turn of the Rajasthan Royals to rue a merciless defeat even while enjoying the privilege of home side.
