Royal Challengers Bengaluru defeated Mumbai Indians by 12 runs in a last-over thriller in IPL 2025 at Wankhede Stadium. Batting first, RCB posted 221/5, powered by Virat Kohli’s 67 and skipper Rajat Patidar’s 64. Mumbai’s chase saw momentum swings, with Tilak Varma and Hardik Pandya reviving hopes before Krunal Pandya’s final-over brilliance sealed the game. Krunal, Hardik's brother, took 3 wickets in the 20th over, crushing MI's chase. This marks RCB’s third win in four matches, boosting their playoff hopes. Kohli said post-match, “We believed till the end.” MI, despite showing fight, are still struggling for consistency this season. (PC: X/@RCBTweet)
