2013-2024: BOOM BOOM Bumrah's road to 150 IPL wicketsmiImagine if records were like cricket stumps, and you had to picture one MI bowler to crash it down quickly; it would be Jasprit Bumrah, wouldn’t it?
BOOM BOOM has now hit a new milestone - 150 IPL wickets.
Jasprit Bumrah is the…- First Indian to take 150 IPL wickets for a single team- Second player to take 150 IPL wickets after Lasith Malinga (170 wickets) for MI- Third quickest player (124 games) to 150 IPL wickets after Lasith Malinga (105 games) and Yuzvendra Chahal (118 games)- Third bowler (150) with the most IPL wickets for a single team after Lasith Malinga (170 wickets - MI) and Sunil Narine (166 wickets - KKR).
As history would state, RCB has been a lucky foe for Bumrah as the Indian pacer registered his maiden, 50th and 100th IPL wicket against them.
Coupled with the fact that he is MI’s leading wicket-taker against RCB in the IPL (24 wickets in 18 innings), the Paltan can expect BOOM BOOM to do what he does best - bowl with tight lines, give no room for runs, target the opposition batters’ stumps and power the MUM-boys to their second win of IPL 2024!
