Mumbai Indians fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah claimed a stunning five-wicket haul against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Thursday. The star of the Indian cricket team looked in red form as he dismissed Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis, Mahipal Lomrur, Sourav Chauhan and Vijay Kumar Veshak to complete his second five-wicket haul of his IPL career. He was on the verge of a hat-trick on two separate occasions during the match. However, it was not to be but Bumrah’s celebration with Rohit Sharma after completing the five-wicket haul has gone viral.

“It was a good day. One of those days where everything I was doing was working. The wicket looked sticky (early). Disappointed with my last ball. When the first over came, I realized The ball has a bit of grip. Bowling a good hard length. I’ve been doing it for 11 years, so I’m used to it,” said Bumrah.

“What happened at the end was the dew and it got better to bat on. Don’t want to go too high or too low with good days and bad days. This game is a great leveller. Want to keep working hard. Better wicket.” Gone. DK played a special knock. Here, it’s hard to stop when one goes.”

Despite Bumrah coming up with one of the best bowling shows ever in IPL 2024, RCB managed to post a total of 196 for the loss of eight wickets. Faf du Plessis was the top scorer with 61 runs followed by Rajat Patidar who scored a much-needed half-century to provide excellent support to the RCB captain.

The late flourish was provided by Dinesh Karthik who remained unbeaten on 53 runs.
