Bumrah-Nair Verbal Clash
On the field, an exchange of words occurred between Mumbai pacer Jasprit Bumrah and Delhi batter Karun Nair.
Nair, batting confidently, completed his half-century by running two on the last ball of Bumrah's over. However, during the run, the two players collided, which didn't sit well with Bumrah.
A brief argument followed during the drinks break, with Bumrah reportedly telling Nair that he had run through his path. Nair responded, and the situation was quickly diffused by MI captain Hardik Pandya. Rohit Sharma was also seen signaling from the dugout, possibly urging calm.
Why Bumrah Why Bumrah?

Karun Nair didn't do it deliberately. Bumrah is showing unnecessary aggression against Indian fellow.

At 33, Karun Nair made a remarkable return to the IPL, stepping in as an impact player for Delhi Capitals in Sunday’s clash at Arun Jaitley Stadium. Making the most of his opportunity, Nair smashed a stunning 89 off just 40 balls.
Despite his explosive knock, Delhi Capitals fell short by 12 runs against MI. The defeat was disheartening for Nair, as this match marked his comeback season in IPL after being away since 2022.
