MI vs RCB Highlights, IPL 2025: Royal Challengers Bengaluru beat Mumbai Indians by 12 runs for their third win of the season
MI vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2025: As the IPL 2025 season heats up, the Monday night showdown between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Wankhede promises high drama and intensity.
Mumbai, five-time champions, are grappling with an early-season slump, having lost three of their first four matches. Their batting has been inconsistent, with only Suryakumar Yadav and Ryan Rickelton registering half-centuries so far. The middle order, led by Tilak Varma, has struggled with conversions, leaving the team vulnerable in the crucial overs.
Rohit Sharma’s injury status remains uncertain, and his absence has left a leadership and top-order void. Jasprit Bumrah’s return to the squad brings optimism, though questions remain about his match fitness.
On the other side, RCB have emerged as a disciplined unit under Rajat Patidar’s leadership. Despite a narrow loss to Gujarat Titans in their last match, they sit third on the table and appear far more settled. With Phil Salt, Devdutt Padikkal, and Tim David all contributing, RCB’s batting depth looks formidable. Their pace attack, featuring Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, adds further edge, though their spinners still seek consistency.
Historically, MI have enjoyed the upper hand against RCB, especially at home. However, current form tips the scales in Bengaluru’s favour. For MI, this match could be a turning point—or a further slide. With both teams boasting firepower and key matchups across the board, fans are in for a thrilling encounter under the Wankhede lights, where redemption meets resurgence.

That was a really amazing match. the way the bowlers have shown courage, it was amazing. To be honest, this award goes to the bowling unit because it's not easy to stop a batting unit on this ground, so the credit goes to them. The way the fast bowlers executed their plans was great. The way Krunal has bowled was amazing. In the last over, it was not easy, I think the way he has bowled and the courage he has shown is amazing. At that time it was clear that we have to take the game deep. So, the discussion was to take the game deep and use KP's one over at the last. The wicket was good and the ball was coming on nicely to the bat. After the Hardik Pandya over, I went all out. The wrist spinner is one of the main bowlers because they are wicket-taking and the way he bowled was great.

The bond that we (Hardik and I) have, we knew there was only one Pandya that was supposed to win, the love and affection we have for each other is very natural. He (Hardik) batted really well and I feel for him, but we (our team) won and that is most important. When I came onto bowl, Santner was batting and leg side was shorter and the amount of games I played here in the last 10 years, at some point the experience had to come in. As a bowler, sometimes you want to commit and it is important to commit 100 percent and it helps in execution. Andy (Flower) and I were there for 2 years in LSG and it was good to know Andy from personal space and the way we are going as a team, we are in a very good head space. Rajat has been terrific in the way he has started and he gives you the confidence and backs your game plan as well. He is very calm and does not complicate things. Jitesh has been terrific, he has improved his game and the game awareness he has while batting is top-notch. With the gloves he has always been exceptional. I just want to keep my head down and keep winning.

It was a run-fest. The wicket was really good. I was just talking about that to myself that again we fell short with two hits, I don't have much to say. (Was 221 par or above-par?) The way the wicket was, the bowers didn't really have much place to hide. It came down to execution. You can stop the batters but I don't want to be harsh on the bowlers. It was a tough track, not many options we had. (No. 3 position) The original skeleton of our team, Naman was always batting down the order. It's just that in the last game, Ro wasn't available, so we had to push someone up and someone like him has the multi-dimensional game where he can come up as well and can play in the death as well. Once Ro was back, we knew that Naman would have to come down. Tilak was fantastic. Last game, a lot of things happened. People made a lot of things about it but people don't know that he had a very nasty hit previous day. It was a tactical call but because of the finger which he had, the coach just felt that that was a better option that someone fresh can come and do it. Today, he was fantastic. In this sort of games, powerplays are very crucial. Couple of overs we were not able to get in the middle, that put us back in the chase. It comes down to execution in the death - we were not able to play those balls. Having him (Bumrah) makes any team in the world very special. He came in and did his job, very happy to have him. In life, never back down, always see the positive side of it. Go out there, try to play the best cricket of your life and back yourself. We are all backing them, just hope for the result to come our way.

"In the first game that was played at this stadium in this season, KKR were bowled out for 116 but that was on pitch number 6, this is pitch number 8 today. Dimensions - 66m and 61m square boundaries, 74m straight. It's a little windy today - gusting up to 36 kph, you just wonder whether that's gonna have an effect on the dew. We know that when the dew comes here at the Wankhede, the ball flies everywhere and teams generally like to chase. I think that might have an influence tonight. When we look down at this surface, it's rock hard, it's got an even coverage of grass but it's a little bit bare. Don't expect a lot of spin on this surface and it should be a high-scoring surface. Mumbai have found it tough in the powerplay. They have got two of the all time legends in the IPL - Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar and they've found it hard in the powerplay so far. Whereas when you look at RCB, the best economy rate in the powerplay in this IPL so far and that's with the class and bounce of Josh Hazlewood and the experience of Bhuvneshwar Kumar who has been brilliant. It'll be interesting to see if there's any movement with this gusting wind out here."

MI vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2025: Words from both captains!
Rajat Patidar: It's a typical Mumbai wicket, will be good to bat. It's important to play good cricket. Bowling unit, it's difficult to bowl here but I am very confident. We have played a lot of cricket, it's pretty clear what we need to do at every venue. We are playing with the same team
Hardik Pandya: We are gonna bowl first. This looks like a good track, dew might come in later. When the wicket is cool, it stays good. When dew comes, it gets better. It always plays well for both teams. It's time for us to get some rhythm, get some good cricket behind us, take the smarter options and do the right things. We are playing good cricket, but it's just that at certain moments, we are missing out on certain things. If we can look after those, we'll be able to get the rhythm. Mumbai has been always supporting us. We have made sure that this is our fortress and we kinda defend it. Playing at home makes it different. The crowd is behind you and you are aware of the conditions. Jassie (Bumrah) is back and so is Ro (Rohit). Bot of our experienced campaigners are back in the side, that gives us an added fuel.

MI vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2025: Mumbai Indians (MI) face a crucial test as they host Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Wankhede Stadium in their fifth IPL 2025 match. With just one win in four outings, MI’s campaign is teetering on the edge, largely due to a misfiring batting lineup.
Apart from Suryakumar Yadav and Ryan Rickelton, their batters have failed to make significant contributions. The potential return of Rohit Sharma from injury and the availability of Jasprit Bumrah offer glimmers of hope.
RCB, meanwhile, arrive in Mumbai with confidence, having won two of their three games. Led by Rajat Patidar, with key contributions from Phil Salt and Devdutt Padikkal, their balanced squad looks well-prepared.
Former MI player Tim David’s presence in RCB’s ranks adds intrigue. Historically dominant at Wankhede, MI now find themselves needing to rediscover form quickly to remain playoff contenders, while RCB aim to capitalise and consolidate their top-half standing.
Playing XIs:
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (Playing XI): Philip Salt, Virat Kohli, Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar(c), Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma(w), Tim David, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal
Mumbai Indians (Playing XI): Will Jacks, Ryan Rickelton(w), Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya(c), Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah, Vignesh Puthur
