The IPL 2025 clash between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Mumbai Indians (MI) witnessed high drama right from the outset of RR’s daunting chase of 218 at the Wankhede. The Royals, riding high on the back of a stellar ton by teenage sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the previous match, were dealt a major blow as the youngster fell for a duck in the very first over.
Deepak Chahar dismisses Vaibhav Suryavanshi for a duck
It was the fourth ball of the opening over when Deepak Chahar delivered a sharp, full delivery to Suryavanshi. Looking to replicate his aggressive style, the 19-year-old went for a big shot but only managed to mistime it. The ball turned off his bat awkwardly and went straight to Will Jacks at mid-on, who took a clean catch just inside the circle.
Suryavanshi stood in disbelief, hands on hips, as MI players erupted in celebration. Just days ago, he had made headlines as the youngest centurion in IPL history. Tonight, however, he had to walk back without troubling the scorers.
Internet explodes with memes on Vaibhav
Fans didn’t take long to respond. Social media was flooded with memes and reactions, some sympathetic, others cheekily poking fun at the unpredictability of cricket. From “from 100* to 0 real quick” memes to GIFs of dramatic exits, the internet captured the mood in typical IPL fashion.

Earlier in the evening, Mumbai Indians showcased a batting masterclass, posting a formidable 217/2 in their 20 overs. Ryan Rickelton got the innings off to a fiery start with a well-crafted 61, while former skipper Rohit Sharma anchored the top order with a fluent 53. The real carnage came in the death overs as Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya unleashed a brutal assault on the RR bowlers. Both remained unbeaten on 48 each, propelling MI to a score that put Rajasthan under immense pressure right from the start.
