Rajasthan vs Mumbai on May 1

Rajasthan Royals (RR) continue their ongoing IPL 2025 campaign by taking on Mumbai Indians (MI) in their upcoming match. Both sides will face off at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur in the 50th game of the tournament on Thursday, May 01. The Royals will be coming into the clash after a dominating victory in their last match against the Gujarat Titans by eight wickets, courtesy of 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi's scintillating ton. The home team finally broke their five-match losing streak to keep their slim playoff hopes alive. Riyan Parag-led team are currently sitting in the eighth position with six points and a negative NRR of 0.349. On the other hand, Mumbai has made a dramatic turnaround in its campaign, winning five games in a row to hold the second position in the tally. The Hardik Pandya-led side, which was earlier at the ninth spot, has quickly regrouped and found their rhythm. With the aspiration of finishing in the top two, Mumbai will leave no stone unturned in the coming game.  

Best economical pick – Vaibhav Suryavanshi has been nothing short of sensational: in just three matches, the 14-year-old has scored 151 runs at a remarkable strike rate of 215.71, including a record-shattering 38-ball 101 against Gujarat Titans-making him the youngest centurion in IPL and T20 history, and the scorer of the second-fastest IPL century ever. His fearless batting, highlighted by a 17-ball fifty (the fastest in IPL 2025) and 11 sixes in a single innings, has drawn praise from legends and played a crucial role in reviving Rajasthan Royals’ campaign, making him an outstanding pick for your fantasy team.

Top captains & vice captains – Rajasthan's dependable opener Yashasvi Jaiswal could be the best batter in the upcoming game against the Mumbai Indians. With 426 runs in 10 matches, Jaiswal currently sits in the fourth position on the highest run-getter list this season. Notably, in his last five innings, he has produced four fifty-plus scores and was dismissed on 49 against RCB. The Southpaw will be running high on confidence and look to hammer the MI bowlers all around the park. Suryakumar Yadav has a stunning record in this format and has done well for both India and Mumbai Indians. He scored a half century in the last game and we can back him to do well.

Smart pick – MI's skipper Hardik Pandya could be crucial with the ball in the forthcoming match against the Royals. Pandya, who has taken 12 wickets in nine games, is currently the second-highest wicket-taker for his side. Interestingly, the all-rounder's record at this ground in IPL has been decent, taking three wickets in four games at an average of 33.00 and an economy of 9.28.

Cautious Pick – Tilak Varma’s IPL 2025 season so far has been steady but not exceptional: in 10 matches, he has scored 239 runs at an average of 39.83 and a strike rate of 140.58, with two fifties and a top score of 59 against Delhi Capitals. While he has shown glimpses of form, including a 56 (29) against RCB and 59 (33) against DC, his overall impact has been moderate, making him a reasonable but not must-have pick for your fantasy team.

My XI – Yashasvi Jaiswal (Captain), Suryakumar Yadav  (Vice-Captain), Hardik Pandya, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag,  Jofra Archer, Ryan Rickelton, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult
