Jasprit Bumrah's Triple Strike Creates IPL History
His fiery spell not only dismantled Delhi's batting but also saw him set two major records in IPL history.
Bumrah claimed 3 wickets for just 12 runs in 3.2 overs, continuing his brilliant form this season. With this effort, he has now become the first bowler in IPL history to take 3 or more wickets in a match 25 times, overtaking Yuzvendra Chahal (22).
Top bowlers with most 3+ wicket hauls in IPL: Jasprit Bumrah (25), Yuzvendra Chahal (22), Lasith Malinga (19), Ravindra Jadeja (17), Amit Mishra (17).
Jasprit Bumrah also etched his name in the record books by becoming the highest wicket-taker against Delhi Capitals in IPL history. He has now taken 28 wickets in 23 matches, surpassing Sunil Narine's 27 in 24 games.
Batting first, Mumbai posted 180/5, powered by a brilliant 73-run knock from Suryakumar Yadav, who was named Player of the Match. In reply, Delhi was bowled out for 121, officially crashing out of the playoff race.
Jasprit Bumrah's record-breaking performance proved to be the turning point.
