Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Hardik Pandya had another disappointing outing with the bat during the match against Delhi Capitals (DC) tonight in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025).
The dynamic all-rounder walked in when MI needed him to take on the attack with the scoreboard reading 113 for 4 in 14.5 overs. However, Pandya failed to step up to the occasion, falling prey to Dushmantha Chameera for 3(6).
Notably, Hardik Pandya has struggled to deliver with the bat in the past few matches with scores of 5(7), 48 (23), 1(3), and 3(6) in the last four fixtures. In a couple of games as well, Hardik failed to finish the game for MI too.
Overall this season, Hardik has batted in nine innings, managing 161 runs at an average of 23 and a strike rate of 161.

Speaking about the MI vs DC match, Suryakumar Yadav played the role of a lone ranger with a stellar half century, finishing unbeaten on 73*(43) to propel Mumbai Indians to a competitive total of 180 for 5 in 20 overs.
For DC, they will need to eke out a win tonight to keep their hopes of IPL 2025 playoffs alive as a loss would guarantee their exit. On the other hand, if MI manages to win, they will secure the last available playoffs berth with Gujarat Titans (GT), Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) having already secured the other three positions.
