Watch: Jos Buttler Plays Street Cricket With Kids in Mumbai After Beating MI in IPL 2025

In a heartwarming display, the England cricket team captain Jos Buttler was spotted playing street cricket with kids on the streets of Mumbai within 24 hours after pipping the hosts Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2025.

The English wicket-keeper batter Jos Buttler was one of the heroes for the Gujarat Titans last night as the 2022 champions beat the 5-times champions Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

In a double rain-interrupted match, the condition of the match swung like the pendulum of an old clock. Mumbai began the match as the favourite but could score only 155 runs.

Gujarat got off to a great start to chase the target, but after the first rain interruption, the game turned in favour of the Mumbai Indians. We had another rain interruption when MI were in cruise control, but when the play resumed, Gujarat Titans won the match on the last ball.

Jos Buttler, who scored 30 runs in the match while chasing on a rather difficult track, was recently spotted playing street cricket with the kids on the streets of Mumbai.

The England captain’s gesture won heart of many cricket fans. The kids involved would also cherish this moment and probably would encourage them to work hard and become a cricketer themselves. Watch the video below.

MI vs GT played an IPL 2025 classic

Meanwhile, the Mumbai Indians and the Gujarat Titans played a classic last-ball thriller last night at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. It was always going to be a big match as both teams sit in the top 4 in the points table.

Mumbai Indians, who have been on a rampant run of 6 matches undefeated streak, were the pre-match favourite. However, after being asked to bat first, they scored only 155 runs.

Gujarat Titans lost an early wicket of Sai Sudharsan, putting GT on the backfoot. However, with target not big, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler took time to build a partnership before the first rain break.

Once the play resumed, Gujarat lost quick wickets, 78-1 to 126-6 in 6 overs. The game was once again when 2 overs of play were left with GT needing 24 runs. Eventually, the target was revised to 147 in 19 overs which Rahul Tewatia, Gerald Coetzee and Arshad Khan achieved and won the match on the last ball of the match.

The win has put Gujarat Titans at the top of the IPL 2025 points table with 16 points from 8 wins in 11 matches, equal on points with RCB but ahead of them on net run rate.
