Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians Highlights, IPL 2025: Karun Nair’s 89 off 40 went in vain as Mumbai Indians registered a thrilling 12-run win over Delhi Capitals at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday.

Earlier, Tilak Varma scored a gritty fifty as MI posted 205 for 5 after getting an invitation to bat first. Tilak slammed 59 off 33 balls with the help of 6 fours and 3 sixes. Ryan Rickelton (41), Suryakumar Yadav (40) and Naman Dhir (38 not out) also helped MI’s cause. For Delhi, Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 2 for 23 in four overs. In the second innings, spin duo of Karn Sharma (3 for 36) and Mitchell Santner (2 for 43) brought MI back in the game. DC batters’ poor running in the 19th over also helped MI’s cause as the Hardik Pandya-led side registered a narrow win. (Scorecard)

DC vs MI Live: Is Mumbai Indians’ total good enough?
“It was a bit sticky upfront, lucky to get a few away. We’ve got a competitive score on the board now. Nice to get a bit of confidence to get going. Hopefully our bowlers can stick at it and defend it. Hopefully it doesn’t change too much, there isn’t much dew, it should only get slower and lower. We need to target the stumps and target both edges. Bumrah is obviously a world class player, great to have him back. Little nervous to keep to him with the pace and swing,” said Ryan Rickelton at innings break.

Tilak Varma into the 40s! Bhuvneshwar Kumar was bowling an excellent over until then, but now Tilak has sent it a long way over deep mid-wicket. Cracking sound off the bat, and MI are still in striking distance. And he ends the over with a 4 too.

MI 90/3 (11)
-
22:21 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: 4, Tilak!
Great timing from Tilak Varma. Gets a boundary on ball 1. Remember, he was retired out by MI in the previous game, so he’ll have a point to prove himself. But MI under the pump, as RCB get another successful over.
MI need 138 runs in 10 overs.
MI 84/3 (10)
-
22:19 (IST)

MI 78/2 (9)
-
22:12 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: 14 off the over
Expensive opening over for Krunal Pandya. Will Jacks also coming to the party, gets 4 runs with a cheeky reverse sweep. Much-needed big over for MI, who were just starting to lose track of the required run rate.
MI 73/2 (8)
-
22:10 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: Can Will Jacks step up?
Will Jacks has made 18 off 11 balls, but he hasn’t given the explosive charge that MI desperately need in this run chase. Remember, he was purchased for Rs 5.25 crore at the mega auction. Meanwhile, Suryakumar Yadav picks up two boundaries off Krunal Pandya. One down the ground, then over the covers.
-
22:07 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: Unsuccessful DRS
Suryakumar Yadav survives. Jitesh Sharma once again went up animatedly for a caught-behind, but the umpire gave not out. RCB take the DRS once more, but this one shows no edge on UltraEdge.

-
22:03 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: Suyash Sharma in!
Impact Sub for RCB! Mystery spinner Suyash Sharma comes in, Devdutt Padikkal goes out. A great hand with the bat by Padikkal today. Now, will Jacks and SKY go after Suyash? They need to start playing the big shots.

MI 52/2 (5)
-
21:52 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: Credit to Jitesh
A big DRS call going RCB’s way, and it seems like it was Jitesh Sharma who urged them to go for the review. Celebration towards Jitesh after the DRS, as he’s patted heavily on the back. Meanwhile, Suryakumar Yadav gets off the mark with a boundary.
MI 43/2 (4.2)
-
21:48 (IST)
MI vs RCB, IPL 2025 LIVE: OUT!

MI vs RCB LIVE: Wicketless start for Bhuvneshwar
Bhuvneshwar Kumar fails to get a wicket in his opening two overs. Goes for a bit of runs as well. Josh Hazlewood now introduced by Rajat Patidar, to bowl to the left-hander Rickelton. Has been arguably the most impressive pacer of IPL 2025 so far.
MI 34/1 (3)
-
21:41 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: 4, 4 Rickelton!
Great shots, Ryan Rickelton! Timed exquisitely through the covers, two balls in a row. Pressure on the two overseas batters – Rickelton and Jacks – to up the tempo. Those kind of shots will help. Bhuvi looking for answers.

21:36 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: OUT!
YASH DAYAL HITS BACK! Rohit Sharma is gone! Swings back in, takes a soft inside edge and knocks over Rohit Sharma’s leg stump. He was looking so good, but has to go early again. 9-ball 17 today for the 37-year-old.

Rohit Sharma is expected to open the batting alongside Ryan Rickelton. Who bats at No. 3 for MI will be a big dilemma, with Will Jacks the natural choice, Tilak Varma more than capable, and Naman Dhir in good form.
Suryakumar Yadav has been great so far too, and he could come good today.

21:22 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: Can Rohit fire?
Virat Kohli’s job done, all eyes now on Rohit Sharma, to see whether he can shine for MI. Rohit has disappointed in the three games he has played so far. Coming back from an injury, he needs to give MI a good start to help them get towards 222.
-
21:21 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: Bumrah wicketless
Jasprit Bumrah goes wicketless on his return to competitive cricket. Not a bad spell, in fact, he’s the only MI bowler to have an economy of less than 10. Finishes with figures of 0/29 in 4 overs. Every other bowler was sent to the cleaners.
-
21:16 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: RCB 221!
221! That’s the final total by RCB. Two excellent half-centuries hit by Virat Kohli and Rajat Patidar, and two excellent cameos by Devdutt Padikkal and Jitesh Sharma. MI will need to put on a great show to chase this down.
RCB 221/5 (20 overs)
MI Target: 222
-
21:09 (IST)
MI vs RCB LIVE: OUT!
Incredible catch by Ryan Rickelton! Rajat Patidar departs, trying to play a ramp shot, miscues but Rickelton still had to make a lot of ground and complete a superb diving catch. 1 more over to go, RCB would want 230!
RCB 213/5 (19)

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Good over by Hardik!
Solid start by the MI captain with the ball. Gives away only five runs, despite starting off with a wide. Tidy stuff to pull things back a bit. The crucial wicket still eludes them, though.

Hardik Pandya brings himself into the bowling attack. Perfect start by the Gujarat Titans openers, and it is now up to their former captain to try and break the partnership. Starts off with a wide, though.

IPL 2025 LIVE: 20 off the over!
Another boundary to end the over! What a shot by Sai Sudharshan. 20 runs off Chahar’s third over, and Gujarat Titans have now soared up to 11 runs per over. Great two overs for them to end the powerplay.
GT 66/0 (6)
-
19:58 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: Overthrow!
Oh dear, terrible throw by Naman Dhir who was trying to hit the stumps. 4 runs, overthrows. Poor work by the fielders as well. Deepak Chahar did not go back to the stumps, and the fielder at mid-off couldn’t save it either. Another big over for GT.
GT 61/0 (5.4)
-
19:55 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: 50 up for GT!
GT needed a big over after the slightly slow start to the powerplay, and they got exactly that in the Mujeeb over. Now their run rate has crossed 9, and they’ll hope to take the momentum from here. Importantly, not a single wicket lost by them so far.
Meanwhile, 50 up for GT in 5.3 overs! Classy 6 by Gill off Chahar, comes down the track and slams it for a maximum.
-
19:53 (IST)
IPL 2025 LIVE: Sai Sudharshan SIX!
Mujeeb ur Rahman into the attack, and what a welcome by Sai Sudharshan! First ball, 4! Second ball, 6! Excellent inside out shot, over the off-side for the maximum. Gill continues the party! Boundary over fine leg. 15 off the over, bad start by Mujeeb.
GT 46/0 (5)
-
19:50 (IST)
IPL 2025 LIVE: Great over by Chahar
Excellent over by Deepak Chahar. Only 5 runs off it, including a wide delivery. Good start by the MI bowlers, as Gill and Sai Sudharshan have not been able to unleash themselves yet. Will Chahar and Boult be given another over in the powerplay?
GT 31/0 (4)
-
19:43 (IST)
GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Sai Sudharshan, classy!
TWO FOURS! Sai Sudharshan looking in great touch. First, a classy straight drive down the ground for a boundary. Two balls later, deft flick through the mid-wicket region for another 4. Trent Boult sighs, great timing by the young opener.

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Rohit Sharma to Vignesh Puthur

-
19:35 (IST)
GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: 4! Gill up and running
Great shot by Shubman Gill! Comes down the track, lofts it over the 30-yard circle and the ball runs away for a boundary through the point region. Boult had bowled a good over up to that point, but excellent from Gill to get GT going.
GT 7/0 (1)

GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: No Vignesh Puthur!
This comes as a big shock, but Mumbai Indians have left out Vignesh Puthur from their team today. He’s not even among the impact substitutes. Mujeeb and Santner will be the spin options for MI.
Vignesh took 3/32 vs CSK on IPL debut, so this is a major call!

IPL 2025 LIVE: Pressure on GT middle order
While Gujarat Titans’ top 3 – Gill, Sai Sudharsan and Buttler – is arguably the best in the IPL, their middle order lacks the firepower. Sherfane Rutherford couldn’t execute properly in the run chase, while Shah Rukh Khan and Mahipal Lomror lack the IPL pedigree for now.
-
18:31 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: Win toss, bat first?
With the Narendra Modi Stadium being a terrific pitch to bat on, it might make sense for the team winning the toss to bat first. Nearly every team has chosen to bowl in this tournament, but PBKS showed in the previous game here that it is possible to win by batting first. Will we finally see a different decision being taken?
-
18:24 (IST)
GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Can SKY step up?
Much like Rohit, pressure is also on Suryakumar Yadav to deliver. We know how devastating he can be, but SKY has been out of the runs for quite a while now. Can he finally deliver the outstanding knock we know he’s capable of?
-
18:17 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: How good is Vignesh Puthur?
Amidst the talk of all the stars like Rohit, Gill, Hardik and Bumrah, let’s take a moment to talk about Vignesh Puthur. 24-year-old, chinaman, never played a first-class game. Thrown in against the daunting yellow CSK brigade, and what a performance! 3 wickets on debut. Another example of MI’s impressive scouting process, and another reason to thank the IPL.

GT vs MI LIVE: Here’s what Jayawardene said
Mahela Jayawardene on Pandya possibly being booed:
“Twelve months on, he (Hardik) has achieved a lot more, and I hope that people will see beyond what happened last year. I hope that we can enjoy a good game of cricket.”
-
18:05 (IST)
GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: Will Hardik be booed today?
Hardik Pandya was heavily booed by the Gujarat crowd following his switch from GT to MI. It marked the start of a wretched season for him, as Mumbai Indians finished last and he received a negative welcome nearly everywhere.
Pandya will hope, having delivered two ICC titles for India, that his perception will have changed by now in front of the Gujarat faithful. Don’t forget, Gujarat is also the state from where Pandya comes.
-
18:00 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: Gujarat Titans’ combination
Gujarat Titans opened with Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharshan in the first game, with the latter making a superb 74. Jos Buttler walked in at No. 3. However, the Englishman holds a terrific record at the Narendra Modi Stadium, so it begs the question whether GT should change their batting order.
-
17:53 (IST)
IPL 2025 LIVE: Can Rohit find his form?
Rohit Sharma started off IPL 2025 in the worst possible manner, scoring a 4-ball duck as MI lost to CSK in their first game. His record at the Narendra Modi Stadium, where today’s match will be played, is not great either.
In 5 IPL games, Rohit has managed only 125 runs here, at a strike rate of under 140 and without a single half-century.
-
17:46 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: No Jasprit Bumrah!
While Hardik Pandya returns, Jasprit Bumrah is still not expected to feature for MI. Head coach Mahela Jayawardene has stated that Bumrah is “fit”, but there is no clarity on whether he can play a full game.
-
17:43 (IST)
GT vs MI, IPL 2025 LIVE: First game of Hardik’s season
Hardik Pandya missed the first game of IPL 2025, having been suspended for slow-over rate in the final game of IPL 2024. In his absence, it was Suryakumar Yadav who led the team. Now, Pandya will be back, in front of the fans he led to glory, but the same ones who turned against him last year.
-
17:33 (IST)
GT vs MI LIVE: Hardik Pandya’s homecoming!
So much of the storyline of this game surrounds Hardik Pandya. His move from GT to MI drew in so much controversy, so much drama, even negatively at one point. Now, the tide has turned. He is a T20 World Cup winner. He is a Champions Trophy winner. Hardik Pandya is adored by India fans all over now, as he returns to Gujarat.
Don’t forget, he was the captain as GT won the cup in 2022 and came runners-up in 2023!

17:31 (IST)
IPL 2025 LIVE: Both sides eyeing first win!
Both GT and MI got off to a losing start to their IPL 2025 campaign. Gujarat narrowly lost to Punjab Kings, failing to chase down 240+, while Mumbai Indians were comprehensively defeated by Chennai Super Kings in the ‘El Clasico’.

OUT! LSG take a new ball after the two massive sixes, with the umpires deciding that the old one is wet enough to warrant a change. Next ball, Stubbs misses, Pant stumps, Siddharth celebrates with aplomb! What a twist. DC now 6-down, and it seems very unlikely from here.

Utterly bonkers start by LSG. Never mind the fact that they’re missing pacers worth a combined Rs 34.75 crore, Shardul Thakur and M Siddharth have done the magic! Erratic powerplay batting by DC, Faf du Plessis must be watching on in horror from the other end.

I don’t believe my eyes! DC are 3-down inside the first 10 balls! M Siddharth strikes, the left-arm off-spinner. DC took a gamble, sent Sameer Rizvi up the order at No. 4. That’s gone down horribly. Takes a knick, Pant grabs the catch. Insane stuff.
DC 7/3 (1.4)

India vs New Zealand Live: Here’s what Varun said after the innings
“It was a good wicket compared to the last wicket. It was not turning much. All I could do was stick it into the stump line and wait for the batter to make some mistake. I like bowling in the death and the powerplay, it is more challenging and gives me more opportunity to pick wickets. I like talking to Kuldeep, even Jaddu bhai and Axar, I am pretty new to this set up and am looking to build some nice bonds. It (the right foot) is a little sore. It is a gettable score if we bat well initially.”

“Till the last ball is bowled, nothing is certain. At the halfway stage, we felt like it’s a reasonable score. The nature of the pitch doesn’t allow you play your shots. We were clinical with the bat. We were calm and composed in our chase. Looked better (pitch). Slightly played better than the one against NZ. It’s about playing good cricket. There are a lot of experienced guys. That’s something I wanted to have – six bowling options and at the same get that batting depth as well.

“I thought the bowlers did a really good job, they worked hard throughout, the spinners squeezed and took the game deep. It was a tricky wicket to start on batting, tough to rotate the strike, everyone did a really good job tonight. It played pretty similar throughout. Little bit of hold for the spinners, little bit of spin and a bit of skid. For the pacers, it was two-paced. We probably could have got a few more on. We lost a couple of wickets at crucial times. If we got 280+, things would have been different. Felt like we were one wicket too many down at each stage of the game. The way we’ve come together. The bowling unit did a wonderful job, some of the batters stood up. We played exceptionally well against England. Some really good cricketers, they are going to get bigger and better,” said Australia captain Steve Smith.

“It was pretty similar to the other day against Pakistan. It is about understanding the conditions and rotating the strike because partnerships on its pitch are important. it all depends on the conditions and then I play my innings. My timing, my composure at the crease, I wasn’t rushed. The singles that I took was the most pleasing part for me. This game is all about pressure. If you go deep into the game, the opposition usually give in. It is important to control your impulses. Even if the RR is six an over, I am not bothered. [Best he has ever played?] I don’t know. That is up to you guys to break down. I have never focused on those things. When you don’t think of those milestones, they happen. If I get to the three-figure mark, great, but the win is important.

India vs New Zealand Live: Here’s what Rohit Sharma said at the toss
“Was anyway looking to bat first, wanted to see what we could do upfront and then challenge our bowlers since we chased on both games. Approach will be very similar to the previous games, just trying to do the same things. One change for us – Harshit has been rested, Varun is playing for us.

Champions Trophy 2025 Live: Pitch report
“The leg side is shorter for the right handers, and it is a longer hit down the ground. Great weather out here, it is just 24 degrees. This is a black soil pitch from Pakistan, pretty dry and will help spinners in the beginning, but later on it comes on better as the lights come on. The economy rate of the spinners are better, but pacers have picked more wickets,” reckon Simon Doull and Dinesh Karthik.

Champions Trophy 2025 Live: Will Arshdeep play?
India regular pacer Mohammed Shami is highly likely to miss the Champions Trophy 2025 match against New Zealand. He endured a calf injury during the match against Pakistan. In his absence, pacer Arshdeep Singh can play for India in his first Champions Trophy. Arshdeep trained under the watchful eyes of bowling coach Morne Morkel, bowling 13 overs with full run-up while Shami only bowled 6-7 overs with a curtailed run-up.

IND vs NZ Live: India’s tough challenge against NZ
India do not have very fond memories of facing Mitchell Santner and Glenn Phillips in a Test series at home late last year, which they lost 0-3, and now they have Bracewell too to tackle. The off-spinner has been quite parsimonious so far, conceding just 3.2 runs per over across two matches. So, the effectiveness of Shubman Gill, India’s standout batter in ODIs of late, batting icon Virat Kohli, who made a morale-boosting 100 against Pakistan, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul against them will have a telling impact on the outcome of the game.

Wood confuses Rohit with his pace as he tries to play a defensive shot. The bat then finds the thick edge of the bat and wicketkeeper Phil Salt shows his brilliant skills and takes a stunning catch behind the stumps. From century in the previous match to 1 in this game, Rohit’s dismissal is a big shock.
IND 6/1 (1.1 overs)

India vs England Live: Here’s what Rohit Sharma said at the toss
“I wanted to bat first and put runs on the board because we bowled first in the last two games. It was important for us to get a win in the last game. The fielders portrayed themselves well in the last two games, a lot of young blood. We want to continue to do well in the field. (On Harshit Rana and Varun Chakravarthy) They are pretty new in their careers so we want to keep the pressure away from them, let them do their own and they have got a lot of potential. We have made some changes – Jadeja and Shami have been rested, unfortunately Varun has a sore calf. So, Washi, Kuldeep and Arshdeep come into the side.”

IND vs ENG 3rd ODI Live: Here’s what Jos Buttler said at the toss
“We are gonna bowl first today. (On whether the expected dew has influenced his decision to bowl first) Little bit maybe, it may spin a bit later. We have batted first in the first two games so it will be a different experience today ahead of the Champions Trophy. It’s a decent wicket, we played New Zealand in the World Cup a few years ago, it was a black soil pitch and it played better in the second half. We have one change – Tom Banton comes in for Jamie Overton into the side.”

India vs England Live: Here’s what Saqib Mahmood said before the game
“I think it’s a dead rubber in terms of the series but in terms of the team we can take a lot heading into the Champions Trophy. (On the Indian pitches) It changes quite a bit in the evening as the dew comes on. It has been really good in the powerplay for batting. It’s my first time in India and I’m learning a lot, it has been good fun. It’s been a little stop-start for me. A few years ago in 2022, I cemented my spot a bit but then I had a stress fracture. Hopefully, I can make a comeback and play in all formats.”

India vs England Live: Pitch report
“This one is right in the centre, 66m to the left and right and 74m straight down the ground. This is the same pitch used for the World Cup final, black soil pitch. It played slower in the first half and better for batting in the second half. The hessian has just come off so it’s a bit damp but there is still time left before play starts it should dry out. There are some cracks that could keep the bowlers interested. Looks like a bowl first wicket. One of those pitch where if a batter gets in he can score but it might not be easy for the new comer. Dew is a concern, there was a lot of dew last night,” Deep Dasgupta and Graeme Swann.

India vs England Live: Rohit Sharma’s powerful ton
Having ended his troubled run with the bat with a characteristic hundred in Cuttack, Rohit Sharma’s confidence will certainly rub off on the rest of the side. His 90-ball 119 in the second ODI was a source of relief to both the side and to him after a prolonged run of poor scores.

3rd ODI Live: Focus on Kohli
Needless to say, having their batting mainstay Virat Kohli among runs and a win would be perfect culmination to the home side’s Champions Trophy preparations. The eight-team competition gets underway from February 19 in Karachi with India starting against Bangladesh the next day in Dubai as per a hybrid model of hosting. Kohli hasn’t looked completely out of touch but hasn’t stayed at the crease for long enough to give himself a chance for a big knock either.

India vs England Live: OUT
OUT!!! Ravindra Jadeja joins the party and give India their second breakthrough as he dismisses the biggest pillar Ben Duckett for 65. Duckett had everything covered for a big innings. All Jadeja tried to do was just defensive bowling – to hide the ball wide of off knowing Duckett is itching to smack him. The batter goes for a mighty slog. Intention was to his squarer but no way he could have hit it straighter with the ball being so wide. Second wicket gone for England.

“It was a good performance in the first game. That’s what I loved about. The energy was very good despite not being on the field for a while. It was superb to watch after losing two wickets. Shreyas prides himself on that intent and attitude and not to forget the contributions of Shubman and Axar as well. Black soil pitch, not sure. Maybe play on the slower side, that’s what I expect. Two changes, Jaiswal makes way for Virat. Kuldeep is rested so Varun makes his debut.”

India vs England Live Updates: Impressive debut of Harshit Rana
Debutant Harshit Rana was taken apart by Phil Salt initially, and the young pacer ended up as the most expensive bowler at Nagpur, but he made crucial strikes, dismissing Ben Duckett and Harry Brook in the same over to turn the momentum in India’s favour. With fitness concerns lingering over lead pacer Jasprit Bumrah, Rana has an outside chance to push for his case with another fruitful outing.

India vs England Live: Rohit under scanner
India skipper Rohit Sharma’s struggles continued as he perished for just two in the first ODI, failing to shake off the disastrous run in the Test series against Australia. His dismissal — a mis-timed lofted shot off Liam Livingstone that ballooned to midwicket — reflected his desperation for runs. The Mumbai man has not scored a fifty in any format since August last year when he made 64 against Sri Lanka in Colombo in the third match.

India vs England Live: Who will Kohli replace?
Shreyas Iyer, who came in for Kohli at the last minute by his own admission, made a rollicking 36-ball 59 that has made dropping him an almost unthinkable act. If the past norms are followed, then Kohli will walk in for Shreyas, but it is more likely that Yashasvi Jaiswal could be the one who will have to make for the batting icon. It means that Gill might rejoin Rohit at the top, and Jaiswal did not have a blazing match either at Nagpur.

India vs England Live: Virat Kohli to return?
India had taken a 1-0 lead after their four-wicket win at Nagpur, but Virat Kohli getting rested owing to a “sore right knee” had raised concerns about his fitness ahead of the Champions Trophy later this month. However, vice-captain Shubman Gill had indicated that Kohli could be back for the second match, which will be played at a venue where the latter made a match-winning 85 against the West Indies in 2019.
