Mumbai Indians are set to face Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Wankhede Stadium on April 7, 2025. This is a crucial IPL 2025 clash for MI, who have had a disappointing start to their campaign, managing just one win in four matches, with their batting lineup lacking consistency.
While Suryakumar Yadav and Ryan Rickelton have impressed with fifties, the absence of Rohit Sharma due to a knee injury continues to weaken the top order, although there are chances he may return for the upcoming game. Jasprit Bumrah has rejoined the squad, but his match fitness remains uncertain.
On the other hand, RCB have enjoyed a more promising start, with two wins from three matches and are currently sitting second on the table. New captain Rajat Patidar has provided stability in the middle order, while Virat Kohli, despite a mixed start, has emerged as the main man.
However, their spin department has yet to deliver consistently. As both teams gear up for this high-stakes encounter, here’s a quick look at the Mumbai weather forecast ahead of the RCB vs MI IPL 2025 match.
Wankhede weather report
The weather forecast for the upcoming IPL 2025 match between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Wankhede Stadium on April 7, 2025, predicts clear conditions with no rain interruptions. The temperature is expected to be around 34–37°C during the match, with humidity levels ranging between 45–50%. Since the humidity level is still relatively high, it’s better to opt for bowling first. High humidity often leads to dew forming later in the evening, especially in night matches. This makes the ball slippery, making it harder for bowlers to grip and easier for batters to chase.
