Mumbai Indians, known for their winning ways and vibrant team spirit, recently shared a delightful moment from their IPL 2025 campaign that has fans smiling across social media. In a video released on the official MI social media handle, young wicketkeeper-batter Robin Minz was seen engaging in a playful interaction with Champak.
The AI-powered robot dog that has become a beloved mascot and viral sensation this season, however, faced some trouble regarding its name but is continuing to charm the players off-field!
Champak Gives Minz a Hilarious Jumpscare
As IPL 2025 crosses its midpoint, Mumbai Indians have been enjoying a well-earned break between matches, giving players some downtime to recharge.
Known for their fun-loving dressing room culture, MI often share behind-the-scenes content that reveals the lighter side of the tournament. The latest video featuring Minz and Champak perfectly captures this spirit, blending humour with technology in the cricketing arena.
In the clip, Robin Minz can be seen enthusiastically playing with Champak, repeatedly exclaiming the now-viral meme word “Technologia,” which has taken social media by storm recently.

The robot dog matches Robin Minz’s energy, wagging and moving around excitedly. When Minz tries to gently caress Champak, the robot unexpectedly jumps up, giving Minz a playful scare. Startled, Minz leaps into the air, much to the amusement of teammates and viewers alike.
Mumbai Indians’ Stellar IPL 2025 Campaign
Robin Minz, a promising left-handed wicketkeeper-batter from Jharkhand, has been steadily making his mark in IPL 2025. Though he has had limited opportunities so far, he was signed for INR 65 lakh in the mega auction.
Mumbai Indians themselves have been in scintillating form this season. As of early May, MI have won six out of seven matches since their mid-season resurgence, sitting comfortably atop the points table.
In their triumphant campaign, veterans like Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya have led from the front, while bowlers Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult have consistently strangled opposition batting lineups.
