Top 3 captaincy picks for MI vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Today: IPL 2025 Match 21

The 21st match of the IPL 2025, MI vs RCB, is scheduled to be played on Monday evening in Mumbai.

The five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) have had a poor start to the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). With three defeats in the first four games, they are among the bottom two of the points table. Their search for points has brought them to their next stop.

MI are scheduled to face Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in match No. 20 of the season at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on Monday evening. RCB are also coming off a defeat at home. But it doesn’t show that they have done badly. They are second on the table as of now.

So, we are in here for a treat with two star-studded batting line-ups to come up against each other. This is one of the much-awaited games on fantasy cricket platforms because of the quality of players in either sides. And to earn more on fantasy cricket platforms, one must chose a good captain, who can earn double points.

For that, we’ve suggested three players who could be great choice to be picked as captain of Dream11 teams on various fantasy cricket platforms.

Top three Dream11 captaincy picks for MI vs RCB, Match 21, IPL 2025

1. Hardik Pandya

The MI captain Hardik Pandya registered the best bowling figures by captain in the IPL in last game and also played a good hand with the bat. He earned 203 fantasy points, and it has happened very rarely when a player gets over 200 fantasy points in one game.

But that is what you can get with Hardik Pandya. He is a match-winner in all three departments and delivers a good performance more often than not. He is a safe and good option to pick as your Dream11 captain.

2. Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav has the most fantasy points as a batter from either side. He is in good form and is a trusted batter in tough situations. Suryakumar has earned 51, 90, 59, and 125 points in four games.

He has earned an average of 80 points per match so far. His good form and record at the Wankhede Stadium are another reason to pick him as captain of MI vs RCB Dream11 teams.

3. Phil Salt

Phil Salt is the in-form RCB batter. He missed out on scoring big in the last game, but before that, he earned 122 and 100 fantasy points. Salt can play well against the MI bowling attack if he can negate the new ball threat from MI bowlers.

But, if Salt survives the powerplay, he will earn a lot of points because he mainly deals in boundaries. That is why he can be a good pick as captain for MI vs RCB Dream11 teams.
