IPL 2025 MI vs SRH

Mumbai Indians (MI) won the toss and opted to bowl against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their IPL 2025 clash at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

“We are going to bowl first. I think it is a lot to do with the dew, last night there was dew and always at the Wankhede it is better to bat second,” MI skipper Hardik Pandya said following the toss.

“It looks a pretty good wicket. We had a nice break, couple of practice sessions and here we are, five days go like that,” SRH captain Pat Cummins said.

Despite a slow start to the season, both MI and SRH are coming off impressive wins in their most recent matches.

MI veteran Rohit Sharma has not been able to make his mark so far, scoring just 56 runs in five matches. Rohit Sharma is also just two sixes away from reaching the milestone of 250 sixes as an MI player.

MI are currently seventh in the table and SRH are ninth, with both teams having won two out of the six matches played.
