Rohit Sharma’s struggles for Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 continue. The veteran batter had started his season with a 4-ball duck against the Chennai Super Kings. Rohit would have thought that things would improve from here. Well, if scoring 38 runs in the next three matches is an improvement, ‘Hitman’ has done well.
The former MI captain was in great touch at the Champions Trophy 2025, which ended on March 9. A month later, he can’t buy a run. Rohit has recorded a flurry of low scores and is yet to score the 20-run mark in the IPL 2025 season.

MI and Rohit would have wanted to do well against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Placed 8th on the IPL 2025 points table, MI really needs a victory to turn things around. Quite a few things haven’t gone well for the franchise, and Rohit continues to be one of those.
Rohit raced off the blocks against RCB. He took Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal on. In his first 8 balls, he’d already scored 17 runs. Everything seemed to be going well; he’d just hit Dayal for back-to-back boundaries. But then, Rohit fell to his kryptonite once again. A full inswinging ball from a left-arm pacer took his edge and rattled the stumps.
