Rohit Sharma has etched his name further into IPL history, becoming the second player ever to score over 6,000 runs for a single franchise. This milestone came during the Mumbai Indians' IPL 2025 clash against Rajasthan Royals at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on May 1. Rohit reached this feat when he scored a fifty (53 off 36 balls), joining Virat Kohli as the only other player to achieve such a remarkable record.
With this fifty, Rohit Sharma has accumulated a total of 6,024 runs for Mumbai Indians across 231 matches, including his contributions in the now-defunct Champions League T20. His IPL run tally for Mumbai Indians stands at 5,751 runs, showcasing his long and successful career with the five-time IPL champions. The only player with more runs for a single franchise is Kohli, who has scored 8,477 runs for Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Rohit’s innings against Rajasthan helped lay the foundation for Mumbai’s strong performance, as he added 116 runs for the opening partnership with Ryan Rickelton, who also played a blistering knock of 61 off 38 balls. Rohit's innings was a well-paced effort, with nine boundaries, as he took control of the spinners, Maheesh Theekshana and Kumar Kartikeya, sweeping and pulling them with authority.
After a slow start to the season, Rohit has shown impressive form in recent matches, registering three fifty-plus scores in his last four outings. His resurgence has coincided with Mumbai Indians’ revival in IPL 2025. After a shaky start, with only one win in their first five matches, Mumbai Indians have surged into the top four with five consecutive victories, showing signs of hitting peak form at just the right time in the tournament.
