New Delhi. Rajasthan Royals have become the second team to be out of the IPL playoffs. Mumbai Indians defeated Rajasthan Royals by 100 runs on Thursday. This is his sixth consecutive win. Mumbai Indians have almost confirmed their place in the playoffs with this. He is now number one in the point table. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals’ expectations have been destroyed. This is the eighth defeat of Rajasthan Royals in 11 matches. Chennai Super Kings have also been out of the playoffs before Rajasthan Royals. Chennai’s team has also lost 8 matches.
In IPL 2025, Mumbai Indians encountered Rajasthan Royals on Thursday. The match was played at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Rajasthan Royals captain Ryan Parag won the toss and chose bowling first but this decision turned upside down to the team. Mumbai Indians scored 217 runs losing just 2 wickets. In response to this, the Rajasthan Royals team collapsed by scoring 117 runs.
Ground’s biggest score
217 runs are also the biggest score of IPL at Sawai Mansingh Stadium. By the way, this is the second time that a team has scored 217 runs on this ground. Sunrisers Hyderabad scored 217 runs at this ground in 2023.
Rohit and Riclton’s fifty
All the batters performed well for Mumbai Indians in this match. Ryan Riclton scored 61 off 38 balls, while Rohit Sharma scored 53 runs in 36 balls. Captain Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav remained unbeaten after scoring 48-48 runs in 23-23 balls. This is just the second time in the IPL when all the team’s top-4 batter has scored more than 40 runs. Earlier in 2011, the batter of Chennai Super Kings did this feat against Rajasthan Royals.
Rajasthan performed shameful surrender
The Rajasthan Royals team, chasing the target, were dismissed by scoring 117 runs in just 16.1 overs. Passer Jofra Archer of England scored the highest 30 runs on his behalf. From this, it can be guessed how bad the performance of this team was. Apart from Jofra Archer, not a single batter of Rajasthan Royals could touch the 20 -run figure. Captain Ryan Parag (16) was the second top scorer of the team. Shubham Dubey scored 15, Yashaswi Jaiswal scored 13 and Dhruv Juril scored 11 runs.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi could not open account
Rajasthan Royals opener Vaibhav Suryavanshi could not even open an account in this match. Deepak Chahar made him walk in his first over. This was also the first over of the match. This is the first time Vaibhav Suryavanshi has been out without opening an account in IPL. He scored a century in the last match. For Mumbai Indians, Trent Bolt shocked the highest number of 3 wickets in this match. Jasprit Bumrah took 2 wickets.
At least take care of Dravid
It would be shameful to surrender the team whose coach Rahul Dravid is Dravid. Admittedly, the regular captain of Rajasthan Royals Sanju Samson is not able to play due to injury, but the rest of the batter has been disturbing. The team is out of the playoff race after losing 8 out of 11 matches. Now it has become a big challenge for Rahul Dravid, who holds the title of ‘Wall’ of Team India.
