RR vs MI IPL 2026: Jaiswal’s 77* Crushes Mumbai by 27 Runs

In one of the most one-sided RR vs MI IPL 2026 contests so far, Rajasthan Royals dismantled Mumbai Indians by 27 runs in Match 13 at Barsapara Stadium, Guwahati. It was Yashasvi Jaiswal who stole every headline, cracking an unbeaten 77 off 32 balls — 10 fours, 4 sixes, strike rate 240.63 — to drive RR to 150/3 in their 11 overs. Mumbai Indians, chasing 151, folded to 123/9 and never truly threatened.

Jaiswal walked away with the Player of the Match award — and no one in the stadium, or watching the Vegas11 News live match tracker, was surprised.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s Teen Explosion Sets the Stage

Before Jaiswal went into overdrive, it was 13-year-old sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi who had Guwahati on its feet. The teenager smashed 39 off just 14 balls — five sixes, strike rate 278.57 — before Shardul Thakur finally ended his stay. The Jaiswal-Sooryavanshi opening stand was the kind of partnership that leaves opposition captains staring at the ground.

“There’s no blueprint for bowling to these two when they’re on,” one analyst noted post-match — a sentiment echoed across cricket forums and Vegas11 News match discussion threads.

Riyan Parag (20 off 10, SR: 200) kept the momentum alive at No. 4, and Shimron Hetmyer finished unbeaten on 6 to seal 150/3.

MI Bowling in RR vs MI IPL 2026: Ghazanfar Shines, But Damage Done

For Mumbai, Allah Ghazanfar (2/21 in 2 overs) was the best bowler on the park, dismissing both Dhruv Jurel and Riyan Parag. Shardul Thakur (1/36) removed Sooryavanshi. Hardik Pandya bowled tidily (0/17 in 2 overs), but the damage was long done by the time he bowled.

MI won the toss and chose to field — a decision that quickly turned costly.

MI Batting: Top Order Crumbles Inside Three Overs

Chasing 151, Mumbai Indians had no answer to RR’s pace and spin combination. The top order disintegrated in a blur:

• Ryan Rickelton — 8 (4), caught Dhruv Jurel off Jofra Archer (10/1, 0.6 ov)
• Rohit Sharma — 5 (6), lbw Sandeep Sharma (22/3, 2.3 ov)
• Suryakumar Yadav — 6 (3), caught Jofra Archer off Nandre Burger (20/2, 1.4 ov)
• Hardik Pandya — 9 (6), caught Jaiswal off Ravi Bishnoi (41/4, 4.3 ov)
• Tilak Varma — 14 (10), caught Hetmyer off Bishnoi (46/5, 4.6 ov)

At 46/5 in under 5 overs, the chase was effectively over.

Rutherford and Dhir: Too Little, Too Late

Sherfane Rutherford — MI’s impact player — offered brief, explosive hope: 25 off 8 balls (SR: 312.50, 2 fours, 2 sixes). Naman Dhir made 25 off 13. But with the required rate climbing past 20, the math was simply impossible.

Tushar Deshpande removed Rutherford (93/6, 7.5 ov), and MI’s lower order couldn’t push beyond 123. Deepak Chahar (6 not out) and Jasprit Bumrah (5 not out) were the last two at the crease when the 11th over ended.
