Rohit Sharma’s struggles in the IPL 2025 continued as he scored 17 runs off nine balls against RCB before being dismissed by left-arm pacer Yash Dayal. This marked his fourth consecutive low score in the tournament, totaling 38 runs in four matches. The experienced player had missed the previous game due to an injury but returned for this crucial fixture.
Rohit has been facing difficulties against left-arm seamers in recent times, and RCB strategically used Dayal to target him early on. Despite a promising start with two consecutive fours, Rohit fell victim to a sharp inswinger that crashed into his middle stump.
In response, RCB posted a formidable total of 221/5, led by fifties from Virat Kohli and Rajat Patidar. Mumbai Indians’ Jasprit Bumrah made his comeback but remained wicketless, finishing with economical figures of 0/29 in four overs.
Overall, Rohit’s struggles with the bat in the IPL have been evident in the past few seasons, with only one instance of crossing the 400-run mark. His team will be hoping for a turnaround in form as the tournament progresses.
