RR vs MI: Where to watch, squads, pitch report, weather, live streaming

After a dramatic late-season resurgence, the Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in their upcoming IPL 2025 encounter. The high-stakes match will take place at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, with the first ball scheduled for 7:30 pm on May 1.

Rajasthan Royals have received a significant boost with the inclusion of young batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi. The teenager made headlines in RR’s previous match by becoming the youngest player to score a century in IPL history. All eyes will be on the promising youngster as he faces a formidable MI bowling attack led by Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult.

Meanwhile, the Mumbai Indians—nicknamed the “Paltan”—will look to maintain their winning momentum. After a sluggish start to the season, the Hardik Pandya-led squad has found its rhythm and is now pushing hard for a playoff spot.
