As temperatures soar across Northern India, the excitement is heating up in the 18th Edition of the Indian Premier League. On the third Monday of IPL 2025, the Royal Challengers Bangalore will face off against the Mumbai Indians at the renowned Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The Mumbai Indians, led by Hardik Pandya, have struggled this season, managing to win only 1 out of their 4 matches. However, the potential return of star bowler Jasprit Bumrah could provide a much-needed boost for the team.
In contrast, the Royal Challengers Bangalore, featuring Rajat Patidar, have enjoyed a solid season, winning 2 out of their 3 games, despite a recent loss to the Gujarat Titans. They will be eager to regain their winning momentum. The matchup between Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli promises to be a thrilling highlight, as both cricketing icons aim to score runs and lead their teams to victory in this pivotal clash.
