Jasprit Bumrah registers his best performance of IPL 2025 so far

Pacer Jasprit Bumrah played a vital role in Mumbai's thumping win over LSG. Batting first, MI posted a huge total of 215/7 on the board. Bumrah then led the charge with the ball as he picked up four wickets, returning with figures of 4/22 from four overs.

He accounted for the wickets of Aiden Markram, David Miller, Abdul Samad, and Avesh Khan. This has been his best performance of the IPL 2025 season so far. Returning from injury, it did take him a few games to get back his rhythm, but he has been impressive as expected, leading MI's attack.

Bumrah has played six matches this season and has bagged nine wickets at an average of 20, an economy rate of 7.50 and a strike-rate of 16. He has played an important part in MI's turnaround after losing four out of their first five matches.

Mumbai have now won five consecutive matches with their win over LSG. They next face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Jaipur on Thursday, May 1.
