Jasprit Bumrah is dealing in wickets in the Indian Premier League 2024. He bowled a perfect Yorker to Rilee Rossouw to end his stay at the crease. The South African batter, who was included in the playing XI in place of Jonny Bairstow, scored just one run before he got a peach of a delivery from the best fast bowler in the world. Rilee was expecting a length ball, but the MI pacer stunned him. He couldn’t bring the bat down on time.

Bumrah got the second wicket in the same over when wicket-keeper Ishan Kishan caught PBKS’ stand-sin skipper Sam Curran. He scored just 6 runs while chasing 193 in 20 overs. Bumrah has now taken 12 wickets and is tied with Yuzvendra Chahal in the first spot. However, the fast bowler will reclaim Purple Cap based on a better economy and average.
Gerald Coetzee sent Prabhsimran Singh (0) and Liam Livingstone (1) back to the dressing room. Earlier, Suryakumar Yadav’s special knock took the visiting team to 192/7. He amassed 78 runs off 43 balls, including 7 fours and 3 sixes. MI and PBKS have won two matches each in the 17th season.
