On the bowling front, Josh Hazlewood holds on to the Purple Cap. Meanwhile, CSK and RR are officially out of the playoff race, as the qualification battle heats up with six teams still in the mix. Rohit Sharma crossed 6000 runs for MI—becoming the first ever to do so—while teen sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi got a dose of cricket라이브 바카라 harsh lessons after a two-ball duck.

Orange Cap Race

Suryakumar Yadav is the new Orange Cap holder after his sublime 48* off 23 balls against Rajasthan Royals. The innings took his tally to 475 runs from 11 matches, surpassing B Sai Sudharsan (456 in 9 games) and Virat Kohli (443 in 10 games).

Despite the difference in matches played, SKY라이브 바카라 acceleration has been pivotal in MI라이브 바카라 resurgence. Yashasvi Jaiswal remained at No. 4 with 439 runs, while Jos Buttler (406) and Nicholas Pooran (404) are the other two batters past the 400-run mark.

Purple Cap Race

Royal Challengers Bengaluru's Josh Hazlewood (18 wickets) retains the Purple Cap with a narrow lead over GT라이브 바카라 Prasidh Krishna (17). MI라이브 바카라 Trent Boult stormed into third after a three-wicket haul against Rajasthan, taking his tally to 16 wickets in 11 games.

Just behind him is CSK라이브 바카라 Noor Ahmad, who has 15 wickets in 10 outings. With just a few games remaining, the race for the top wicket-taker remains tight.

Points Table Update

Mumbai Indians' dominant win over RR has taken them to the top of the table with 14 points and the best net run rate (1.124). Rajasthan Royals, meanwhile, are out of playoff contention and stuck at eighth.

Chennai Super Kings too joined them after a fifth straight loss at Chepauk against Punjab Kings, ending their hopes for a fairytale finish. MI, RCB (14 points), and GT (12 points) currently lead the charge, with DC, LSG, and KKR still fighting hard for a final-four berth.

Rohit Sharma Milestone

Rohit Sharma continues to add pages to his legendary career, becoming the first-ever batter to cross 6000 runs for Mumbai Indians (across IPL and CLT20). He achieved the feat during his 29-run knock against Rajasthan, reaching the landmark with a classy sweep to deep square leg.

The next closest, Kieron Pollard, is way behind at 3915 runs, while Suryakumar Yadav sits third with 3460.

Mumbai라이브 바카라 Six-Win Streak

After a shaky start with just one win in their first five, Mumbai Indians have now equaled their longest IPL winning streak—six matches—previously achieved in 2008 and 2017. Their 100-run thrashing of Rajasthan in Jaipur is their third win by 100+ runs in IPL history, second only to RCB라이브 바카라 four.

MI's turnaround has been powered by aggressive batting, strategic bowling changes, and SKY라이브 바카라 brilliance, making them red-hot favourites for a top-two finish.

Playoff Scenarios

Mumbai and RCB both sit on 14 points, but MI라이브 바카라 NRR gives them the edge. Gujarat Titans, with 12 points from 9 games, have five matches left and a very favourable schedule. DC and LSG remain contenders but must win at least two or three of their remaining games and boost their NRR.

KKR can still mathematically qualify but need a near-perfect run. SRH, with just six points and the worst NRR among all, face an uphill task needing five straight wins and several favours from other results.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi: From Glory To Grit

Just days after etching his name in IPL history with a record-breaking century, 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi faced the flip side of elite sport. The young prodigy was dismissed for a two-ball duck against Mumbai Indians, chipping a catch to Will Jacks in the very first over. It was a stark reminder of the game라이브 바카라 unpredictability and the journey that lies ahead for the teenager, even as MI continued to dominate with the ball, bundling out RR for 117.
