Mumbai Indians delivered a commanding performance to defeat Rajasthan Royals by 100 runs in Jaipur, knocking RR out of IPL 2025 playoff contention. After being put in to bat, MI posted a mammoth 217/2, powered by quickfire half-centuries from Rohit Sharma (53) and Ryan Rickelton (61), with Hardik Pandya (48*) and Suryakumar Yadav (48*) finishing strong. Rajasthan's chase faltered quickly, as Jasprit Bumrah (2/15), Trent Boult (3/28), and Karn Sharma (3/23) dismantled their lineup for just 117 in 16.1 overs. With this dominant win, MI climbed to the top of the points table, boosting their playoff hopes. (PC: BCCI)
