Five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) will look to end their winless streak when they host defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in match 12 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday, March 31.
Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians head into their first home match of the season on the back of two losses with the latest coming as recently as Saturday (March 29) against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Meanwhile, Ajinkya Rahane’s KKR possess a record of one win and one loss in their two outings this season, having bounced back from the 7-wicket defeat at home to Royal Challengers Bengaluru with an 8-wicket away win over Rajasthan Royals in their most recent fixture.
