IPL 2023 Highlights MI vs RR: An unbeaten 62-run partnership between middle-order batters Tilak Varma (29 not out) and Tim David (45 not out), coupled with a half-century by Suryakumar Yadav (55), helped Mumbai Indians defeat Rajasthan Royals by six wickets in the 1000th Indian Premier League (IPL) match at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.
Mumbai Indians chased down the target of 213 with three balls to spare, reaching 214 for 4 in 19.3 overs.
Young Royals opener Yashasvi Jaiswal’s fine century and a 72-run partnership with skipper Jos Buttler went in vain as the team suffered a defeat despite putting a mammoth score on the board.

Rajasthan Royals win the toss and elected to bat first. This is also the 150th match of Rohit Sharma as MI captain.
Wankhede Stadium’s pitch has a history of high-scoring battles in limited-over formats. Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals are expected to face a similar outcome as the surface favours batting. Pacers will benefit from good bounce and swing with the new ball, while spinners can make use of middle overs. The dew factor may aid the chasing team, making the toss crucial in deciding the game’s fate.
