Delhi: Mumbai Indians (Mi) captain and star all -rounder Hardik Pandya performed brilliant bowling in the 16th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) and took 5 wickets for 36 runs in 4 overs. This is his best bowling performance in T20 cricket. Earlier, he took 4 wickets for 16 runs in Ahmedabad against New Zealand in 2023. Now he set a new record against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).
Hardik Pandya has become the first captain to take 5 wickets in the history of IPL. In this match, he sent big batsmen like Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) captain Rishabh Pant, Nicholas Puran, Aiden Markram and David Miller to the pavilion. However, despite his deadly bowling, LSG crossed the 200 -run mark and scored a score of 203/8.
Hardik has taken 8 wickets in 3 matches so far in this IPL season and has become the second highest wicket bowler. He took two consecutive wickets in the last over, where David Miller was caught by Naman Dhir and Akash Deep at the hands of Santner. However, he missed out on taking a hat -trick.
Lucknow Super Giants, batting first, scored 203/8 thanks to the best innings of Mitchell Marsh (60 off 31 balls) and Aiden Markram (53 off 38 balls). Despite Hardik’s great performance, LSG’s team scored a big score, but his fatal bowling has established him as a prominent bowler in IPL 2025.
