RR vs MI, IPL 2025 Match 50: Top Picks
Vaibhav Suryavanshi: 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi took the IPL 2025 season on fire with his fiery 35-ball hundred in the last game against Gujarat Titans. He has been a find of RR and showed ability to hit big sixes at such a young age.
Jofra Archer: Fast bowler Jofra Archer has been a star performer for RR this year and can turn out to be dangerous with the new ball. He has taken 10 wickets in 10 matches in IPL 2025 so far.
Rohit Sharma: Rohit Sharma has looked in great touch in the last few matches and could turn out to be a key player for MI in the upcoming match. The opening batter has scored two fitites in the last two matches and will look to get another big knock against RR.
Hardik Pandya: MI skipper Hardik Pandya has showed his ability to turn the match around with both batting and bowling. He will be looking to make impact in the upcoming IPL clash against RR.
RR vs MI, IPL 2025 Match 50: Players to avoid
