IPL 2025: Kartikeya, Madhwal Come In As RR Elect To Bowl First Against Unchanged MI
Kumar Kartikeya Singh: Kumar Kartikeya Singh and Akash Madhwal come into Rajasthan Royals' (RR) playing eleven as captain Riyan Parag won the toss and elected to bowl first against an unchanged Mumbai Indians (MI) in Match 50 of the Indians Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium here on Thursday.
RR are currently in seventh place on the points table and need to win all their remaining games to have a chance at entering the playoffs. But it’s easier said than done against MI, who are on a five-match winning streak. A win for MI on Thursday will help them replace Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the top of the points table.
After winning the toss, Parag said Kartikeya and Madhwal, playing his first game of the current season, have been drafted into the playing eleven due to Wanindu Hasaranga having a niggle, while Sandeep Sharma is unavailable for the rest of the competition after suffering a fracture in his finger, as said by RR before toss happened.
