The impressive winning streak of the Mumbai Indians will be on the line as they face old nemesis Rajasthan Royals in an away match. This will be fixture #50 of the IPL 2025 season to be played at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Thursday, May 1. Our prediction is a win for the home team.
The Royals are eighth after 47 matches of the season with six points (W3, L7) and are six points adrift of the top four teams. Mumbai are second in the standings with 12 points (W6, L4) and are only two points behind leaders Bengaluru.
Rajasthan are coming off an eight-wicket stunning win on Monday against the Gujarat Titans where the 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi stole the headlines. It was their first win after five defeats in a row, keeping them alive in the season.
This win coming at home has improved the team’s morale, as it also ended a two-game losing streak at this venue this season.
Mumbai thrashed Lucknow Super Giants by 54 runs last Sunday for their fifth victory in a row. This is a strong turnaround for the season after winning just one of their first five matches of the campaign.
They have already zoomed into the top two spots, but can they sustain the momentum?
