On May 1st 2025, at 7:30 PM IST, the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Mumbai Indians (MI) will play their 50th IPL 2025 match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Both teams are coming off impressive wins in their previous matches, but their positions in the points table tell different stories.
The weather in Jaipur is expected to be clear, with temperatures around 30°C during the match. The modest humidity levels will guarantee favourable playing conditions.
The Sawai Mansingh Stadium traditionally favors batsmen, but spinners have also found success as the game progresses. The average first-innings score here in IPL 2025 has been around 170-180, making it a balanced surface. Teams winning the toss may prefer to chase, given the dew factor in night games.
A victory for MI will increase their chances of making the playoffs, while RR's defeat will formally remove them from the battle for the top four.
