Rohit Sharma
Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to play their first home game of IPL 2025 at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, on Monday (March 31) against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). All eyes will be on Rohit Sharma, the former MI captain and a key batter for the team.
Rohit Sharma’s Recent IPL Form
Rohit has had a slow start to IPL 2025, scoring just 8 runs in two matches. As MI prepares for their third match, let’s take a look at his last 10 IPL innings.
Rohit Sharma’s Last 10 IPL Scores
MI vs GT, Ahmedabad (2025) – 8 runs
Rohit failed to get going and was dismissed cheaply.
MI vs CSK, Chennai (2025) – 0 runs (Duck)
A rare failure, getting out without scoring in the season opener.
MI vs LSG, Mumbai (2024) – 68 runs
A strong innings at Wankhede, showcasing his class.
MI vs KKR, Kolkata (2024) – 19 runs
Got a good start but couldn’t convert it into a big score.
MI vs SRH, Mumbai (2024) – 4 runs
A tough match where SRH bowlers restricted him.
MI vs KKR, Mumbai (2024) – 11 runs
A short stay at the crease in a home game.
MI vs LSG, Lucknow (2024) – 4 runs
Struggled against spin on a slow pitch.
MI vs DC, Delhi (2024) – 8 runs
Found it hard to get going in a tight game.
MI vs RR, Jaipur (2024) – 6 runs
RR bowlers didn’t allow him to settle.
MI vs PBKS, Mullanpur (2024) – 36 runs
Showed glimpses of his form but couldn’t play a big innings.
Wankhede Stadium: Rohit’s Happy Hunting Ground
Rohit has a strong record at Wankhede Stadium, scoring 2,295 runs in 80 matches at an average of 34.25. His highest score here is 105 (not out)* in the 2024 season. With two of his last ten innings played at Wankhede (68 vs LSG, 4 vs SRH), fans hope he will find his rhythm against KKR.
Rohit’s Form
Rohit’s recent form has been inconsistent. While his 68-run knock in 2024 was impressive, five single-digit scores—including a duck this season—show his struggles. In IPL 2024, he scored 417 runs in 14 matches at an average of 32.08, hitting 45 fours and 26 sixes. Though these numbers are decent, they don’t match his past performances. However, Rohit remains a match-winner who can bounce back anytime.
The Challenge Ahead: MI vs KKR
In the upcoming match, Rohit will face a tough test against KKR spinners Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine. However, with 6,636 IPL runs, 2 centuries, and 43 fifties, Rohit thrives under pressure. A big innings at Wankhede could help MI register their first win of the season and silence his critics.
