Not Kohli's RCB! Shikhar Dhawan Reveals Which Team He's Supporting In IPL 2025
Shikhar Dhawan has revealed that he's backing the Mumbai Indians (MI) to win IPL 2025, saying the five-time champions have been 'playing very well' and are a well-balanced team who have momentum on their side. The former India opener picked Hardik Pandya's side over his former club, Punjab Kings (PBKS), and the high-flying Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), who are the only team to have solidified their place in the final so far. Dhawan was PBKS' captain last year when they finished ninth in the points table, just above MI. This year, under Shreyas Iyer and Ricky Ponting, the Punjab-based franchise has been one of the best, qualifying at the top of the table. But they lost to RCB in the first Qualifier and will play against MI in the second Qualifier after the latter beat Shubman Gill's Gujarat Titans by 20 runs in the Eliminator on Friday.

Hardik Pandya and Shubman Gill at the toss. (Pic credit: IPL) Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill has put an end to swirling rumours of a rift with Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya following a viral video from the IPL 2025 Eliminator. On the evening of May 31, Gill took to Instagram to share photos of himself smiling with Pandya, accompanied by a clear message: 'Nothing but love. (Don't believe everything you see on the internet) @hardikpandya93. ' Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! The story, though brief, was enough to calm fans and dismiss speculation that the two Indian stars were not on good terms. Gill's post served as a public clarification that there is mutual respect between the two players and that the perceived tension may have been exaggerated online. The controversy began after a video clip from the toss went viral on social media. In the footage, Hardik Pandya extended his hand for a shake, but Gill appeared to walk past without acknowledging it. The clip immediately drew attention, with many interpreting it as a deliberate snub. Adding to the drama, when Gill was dismissed early in the match for just 1 run, Pandya was seen celebrating animatedly, further fuelling the narrative. Shubman Gill returns to the city where it all started for him as a youngster However, Gill's calm and composed response on social media has seemingly ended the speculation.

MI's legacy faces PBKS dream run in IPL Q2
Ahmedabad, May 31 (UNI) The stakes couldn't be higher. The lights at Narendra Modi Stadium are ready to blaze, and the roar of over a lakh fans will rise as Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians lock horns in Q2 encounter for a place in the IPL 2025 final. But amid the drama and unpredictability that defines T20 cricket, one quiet, clinical force looms large — Jasprit Bumrah. The seasoned MI pacer, with 18 scalps at a stingy economy of 6.36, has been in menacing form and could well be the difference in Sunday night's Qualifier 2. Mumbai are surging into this clash on the back of a dominant 20-run win over Gujarat Titans in the Eliminator. With five titles to their name, they are no strangers to pressure — and this current unit, under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, looks locked in. The batting lineup is humming. Rohit Sharma found rhythm at just the right time, scoring a composed 81 off 50, while Jonny Bairstow, thrust into the spotlight as Will Jacks's replacement, wasted no time — hammering 47 off 22 balls and setting the tone early. Suryakumar Yadav, meanwhile, continues to defy cricketing logic with 673 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 167.83. Tilak Varma, Hardik, and Naman Dhir add steel to the middle order, while Deepak Chahar could come in as the Impact Player to make early inroads with the ball. Bumrah's deadly precision and the left-arm swing of Trent Boult give MI an edge with the new ball, but Mumbai will still be wary of their unsettled fourth bowling option, with Richard Gleeson underwhelming last game. Punjab, on the other hand, are nursing fresh scars. Their 101 all-out collapse against RCB in Qualifier 1 was a brutal reality check after a consistent season. Now, they must dust themselves off and step into a ground where playoff inexperience and scoreboard pressure can swallow teams whole. Still, PBKS have match-winners. Prabhsimran Singh (517 runs) and Priyansh Arya (431) have formed one of the league's most exciting young opening pairs. Captain Shreyas Iyer has been the glue in the middle, scoring 516 runs with trademark poise. They'll need much more though — Josh Inglis, Marcus Stoinis, and Shashank Singh must rise to the occasion. Inglis' explosive 73 against MI in the league stage was a turning point then — can he repeat it now, when it matters most? Their bowling, led by Arshdeep Singh, carries the weight of expectation. Kayle Jamieson stepped up with a tidy spell in the last game, but the absence of Yuzvendra Chahal continues to sting. If Harpreet Brar and Azmatullah Omarzai can contain, PBKS might yet script an upset. Ahmedabad has made its preferences clear — bat first and bat big. Six of the seven matches here in IPL 2025 have been won by the team setting a target. With recent totals soaring above 230, both captains will have their eyes on that toss. Clear skies and dry heat are expected, with no rain on the radar. Expect a full-throttle contest under the lights. The last four meetings are split 2-2, with Punjab winning their most recent clash on May 26. Yet, as the tension tightens and the floodlights flicker on, the balance may tip toward the franchise that's lived through nights like these — Mumbai, with the nerveless Bumrah at their spearhead, look the safer bet. But cricket, especially T20, rarely reads the script. And for Punjab, the story of their season isn't over yet. Predicted Playing XIs: Punjab Kings: Priyansh Arya, Prabhsimran Singh, Josh Inglis (wk), Shreyas Iyer (c), Nehal Wadhera, Shashank Singh, Marcus Stoinis, Azmatullah Omarzai, Harpreet Brar, Arshdeep Singh, Kyle Jamieson Impact Player: Yuzvendra Chahal, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Musheer Khan Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Naman Dhir, Raj Bawa, Mitchell Santner, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah, Ashwani Kumar Impact Player: Deepak Chahar UNI BDN ARN
