MI Win By 8 Wickets | MI vs KKR Live Score Updates of IPL 2025: Ashwani Kumar, Ryan Rickelton Power Mumbai Indians to Dominant Victory

That's It! A quick finish for the Mumbai Indians. After Suryakumar Yadav came to the crease, things ended in a flash. The game was pretty much over in the first innings when KKR struggled their way to only 116. MI literally cruised to the target and got a net run rate boost. There will be concerns for KKR as this is the second time in three matches their batting has failed. 

Half-Century for Ryan Rickelton. Started in a streaky way but got to rhythm eventually and have picked up pace in his innings now. Took down Sunil Narine for multiple sixes and MI are now looking to finish it quickly. 

Out! Rohit Sharma's poor run of form continues. Andre Russell bowls into the pitch and Rohit Sharma tries to go down the ground only to get a top edge. Loops gently into the hands of the mid-off fielder. Too little too late for KKR. Rohit c Harshit Rana b Russell 13(12).

Despite a quiet first over and some good bowling from both the KKR bowlers upfront, Mumbai Indians didn't lose a wicket and they are off to a good start courtesy Rickelton throwing his bat at the balls. The target is very modest and this start will only make the result quick. 

Out! Ramandeep Singh departs and the KKR innings comes to an end. They got bowled out for only 116 and it is a sensational bowling performance from them. Debutant Ashwani Kumar was on spot with a brilliant four-wicket haul and Hardik Pandya's captaincy was spot on to shuffle the bowlers according to the batters. They have set the match for a comfortable victory here. Harshit Rana c Naman Dhir b Vignesh Puthur 4(8).

Out! KKR keep losing wickets in heap. They have tried to attack despite losing wickets but never found any momentum. Vignesh Puthur comes into the attack and Harshit Rana goes for the slog sweep. Only to find Naman Dhir at the deep who takes a very good catch. Harshit Rana c Naman Dhir b Vignesh Puthur 4(8).

Out! Ashwani Kumar strikes again. He uses the scrambled seam once again to knock over Andre Russell's stumps. The ball grips the surface and deviated a little to evade Andre Russell's bat and knock his stumps over. KKR in their last reserves of batting now. Russell b Ashwani Kumar 5(11).

Out! Ashwani Kumar strikes in the same over. Uses the scrambled seam ball. Gets it to jag back sharply and hits top of leg of Manish Pandey. Sensational bowling this from the debutant and MI have KKR at their mercy now. Manish Pandey b Ashwani Kumar 19(14).

Out! Rinku Singh departs and it is Ashwani Kumar again. Keeps the ball on the offside and Rinku Singh slashes hard at it, only to get a top edge. The ball only goes high and Naman Dhir settles under it to take a good catch. MI continue domination here. Rinku Singh c Naman Dhir b Ashwani Kumar 17(14).

Out! Half the side of KKR is now dismissed. Angkrish Raghuvanshi was playing like a dream but Hardik Pandya's bouncer does him. It was a little outside off and Angkrish went for the forced pull shot. The deep mid wicket fielder settled and took a good catch. MI are well ahead in the game now. Angkrish Raghuvanshi c Naman Dhir b Hardik Pandya 26(16).

Out! Venkatesh Iyer departs and KKR are in big trouble here. Deepak Chahar planned the short ball close to his body against him and that is one that gets him the wicket. Venkatesh ducked the first one and the second one was too close to him to cut. Gets a faint nick on the way to the wicketkeeper. MI are on top here. Venkatesh Iyer c Rickelton b Chahar 3(9).

Out! Mumbai Indians strike again. Captain Ajinkya Rahane departs now. A lot of drama in the ball as first Ashwani Kumar comes to bowl and Rahane slices it straight to Tilak Varma at deep backward point. Tilak fumbles it first and then takes it one handed to complete the catch. KKR in trouble now. Rahane c Tilak Varma b Ashwani Kumar 11(7).

Out! Mumbai Indians are on a roll here. Deepak Chahar strikes in his first over too. Gets the ball swing away from Quinton de Kock, makes him reach out for it and de Kock finds the mid-off fielder. Top start from the MI bowlers and they will want to capitalise on this. de Kock c Ashwani Kumar b Chahar 1(3).

Out! Trent Boult strikes in the first over. Gets on to outswing from the line of Sunil Narine's pads. Narine backed away but the ball moved away enough to knock over his stumps. Mumbai Indians strike early.  Narine b Boult 0(2).
