Jasprit Bumrah Extends Record with Three-Wicket Haul in IPL

Mumbai Indians’ pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has further cemented his dominance in the Indian Premier League (IPL) by extending his record for the most three-wicket hauls in the tournament’s history. In a match against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, Bumrah returned impressive figures of 3/18, taking his tally to 23 three-wicket hauls in just 131 innings.

Bumrah’s precision and ability to deliver under pressure have made him a formidable force in the IPL. His ability to swing the ball both ways and generate pace and bounce has consistently troubled batsmen. Not far behind Bumrah is Yuzvendra Chahal, the crafty leg-spinner, who has claimed 20 such hauls in 154 innings. Chahal’s knack for outfoxing batsmen with his guile and variations has been crucial for his teams over the years.

Sri Lankan yorker specialist Lasith Malinga has also left an indelible mark on the league with 19 hauls of 3 wickets or more in 122 innings. Malinga’s lethal death bowling and ability to clinch wickets at crucial junctures have made him a legend in the IPL. Veteran leg-spinner Amit Mishra rounds off this elite list with 17 hauls in 162 innings. Known for his flight and turn, Mishra has been a consistent wicket-taker, proving time and again the value of spin in the shortest format of the game.

In the match against Kolkata Knight Riders, Bumrah’s astonishing spell helped Mumbai Indians bowl out their opponents for a modest 169. Sri Lankan medium pacer Nuwan Thushara (3/42) blew away the top-order, while Bumrah was menacing at the back end. Skipper Hardik Pandya (2/44) also chipped in with a couple of wickets.

For KKR, Venkatesh Iyer (70 off 52) and Manish Pandey (42 off 31) made significant contributions, but their efforts were not enough to propel the team to a competitive total. Mumbai Indians ultimately chased down the target with ease, thanks to a solid batting performance led by Ishan Kishan (51 off 43) and Suryakumar Yadav (43 off 30).
