Five-time champions Mumbai Indians visit Hyderabad to take on a Sunrisers Hyderabad team that is ninth in the Indian Premier League standings with just four points from seven games. The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad will be the host for the SRH vs MI clash.
Mumbai were almost at the bottom of the IPL standings not too long ago, having won just a single match in IPL 2025 in five games. But then, they found second wind and claimed victories in their last three IPL 2025 matches. This included a win over Sunrisers themselves by four wickets at the Wankhede Stadium.

Mumbai Indians (Playing XI): Ryan Rickelton(w), Will Jacks, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya(c), Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah, Vignesh Puthur
Harshal Patel to Rohit, FOUR, slot ball and it disappears! Harshal Patel went for the yorker and undercooked it just a touch, ended up as a half-volley on middle-stump and Rohit whipped it uppishly over mid-wicket who was up in the ring, another risk-free boundary
Zeeshan Ansari to Rohit, FOUR, to third man
Cummins to Rohit, 1 run, that's back to back fifties for Rohit! Full on middle, clipped away towards deep mid-wicket, thought of two but settled for one, looks like the Indian skipper is truly back to form!
Zeeshan Ansari to Will Jacks, out Caught by Abhinav Manohar!! Will Jacks c Abhinav Manohar b Zeeshan Ansari 22(19) [4s-2 6s-1]
First over goes for eight runs- Jaydev Unadkat takes a sharp return catch to dismiss Ricketon- Rohit and Will Jacks get a six apiece off Cummins’s second over- Harshal Patel starts off with a tidy over, concedes two runs- Will Jacks picks up a couple of boundaries against Eshan Malinga- MI end the powerplay at 56/1
Unadkat to Rohit, SIX, Rohit found his mojo back in the last game against CSK and he is carrying on from where he left off! Slower length ball on off, Rohit picked it right from the hand. He gives himself some room and launches it over deep extra cover for a maximum
Unadkat to Rickelton, FOUR, nicely done! On a back of a length outside off, some nibble in the air, Rickelton waits for it, opens his bat-face and glides it in the small gap between short third and backward point
Boult to Cummins, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! Boult finishes with a 4-fer! You miss, I hit stuff! Cummins tries to be cheeky as he moves across his stumps and tries to scoop. Boult attacks the stumps with a full and fast delivery. Cummins is beaten and the ball crashes into the middle-stump. Cummins b Boult 1(2)
Bumrah to Klaasen, out Caught by Tilak Varma!! Bumrah has the last laught! 300th wicket in T20s for Bumrah! A full-toss shaping towards leg-stump, Klaasen looks to swipe it across but ends up miscuing it towards deep backward Klaasen c Tilak Varma b Bumrah 71(44) [4s-9 6s-2]
Hardik Pandya to Abhinav Manohar, FOUR, to deep extra cover
Bumrah to Klaasen, FOUR, good percentage shot that! A low full-toss this time, Klaasen clears his front leg and hits it over mid-off. DIdn't get it off the meat of the bat but had enough on it to beat long-on to his left
Boult to Klaasen, 1 run, fifty for Klaasen, his first one of the season! It has come in a crisis situation and he is met with a big cheer from the crowd at Uppal. A slower back of a length ball cutting across Klaasen. He plays a controlled pull shot to deep mid-wicket
Bumrah to Abhinav Manohar, SIX, top shot! Pitched up delivery that was a bit wide on off, Manohar backs away a bit to make room and goes inside out on the drive. Chips it all the way for six over extra cover
Hardik Pandya to Klaasen, FOUR, to backward square leg
Vignesh Puthur to Klaasen, SIX, starts with a gentle leg break onto middle and leg, Klaasen gleefully sends the ball into the second tier beyond deep mid-wicket. Rocks back and pulls it away
Hardik Pandya to Aniket Verma, out Caught by Rickelton!! This wicket was coming! Hardik peppered him with bouncers and sensed a fraility in the batter, and that's exactly what has been Aniket Verma's undoing. This is a third bouncer, this time pace off. Aniket backs away for a slash but can only edge it through to the keeper. The MI skipper denotes a peace sign towards the batter as he walks off.. Aniket Verma c Rickelton b Hardik Pandya 12(14) [4s-1]Hits
Chahar to Klaasen, FOUR, length ball just outside off, Klaasen stays tall and pulls it away. One bounce and towards the deep mid-wicket boundary
Bumrah to Klaasen, 1 run, 135.7 clicks, back of length and zips through onto off stump. Punched to the left of mid-off for a single
Boult to Abhishek Sharma, out Caught by Vignesh Puthur!! Another one! Not looking good for the hosts. A fuller and slightly wider delivery, took the pace off on this one. Abhishek Sharma goes for a drive and opens the bat face on impact. Balloons the ball towards the point fielder. Abhishek Sharma c Vignesh Puthur b Boult 8(8) [6s-1]
Chahar to Ishan Kishan, out Caught by Rickelton!! That has got to be one of the most bizarre 10 seconds of play either!! A tame length delivery that angles down the leg side, the keeper collects and was about to just go through with business. But the umpire has his hand partially raised, and then the MI players make a polite enquiry for a catch. And the umpire raises his finger completely, and Ishan Kishan walks off as well. A sliver of an appeal came from Hardik, but nothing much from the keeper or bowler. Ishan Kishan c Rickelton b Chahar 1(4)
Boult to Head, out Caught by Naman Dhir!! Big blow!! A length ball that shapes away after pitching and ends outside off. Head clears the front leg for a big slash, ends up skewing it off the toe-end. Goes high in the air and deep backward point settles under it. Head c Naman Dhir b Boult 0(4)
Chahar to Abhishek Sharma, no run, away swinger from middle stump. Abhishek gets closer and defends it into the pitch.
