Bumrah shines in high-scoring match too
A total of 448 runs were scored in this match played at Narendra Modi Stadium. But Bumrah again proved why he is special. He conceded just 27 runs in his 4 overs and took 1 crucial wickets. He once again proved to be a trump card for Mumbai against Gujarat’s strong batting lineup.
Funny comparison of Hardik
After the match, Hardik jokingly said, “As the prices of houses in Mumbai are there, Bumrah has a value. When you have such a bowler, he is a luxury. I thought by looking at the scoreboard, I thought that if some runs could be saved, bowlers like Bumrah would save.”
“It’s a luxury. It’s like Mumbai Housing Pries.”

Bumrah makes Bumrah easy
Hardik said that it becomes easy to captain with the presence of Bumrah. He laughed and said, “It is very simple. When the match is coming out of hand, just give a ball to Bumrah.”
Bumrah came in crisis
Mumbai had scored a big score of 228 runs, but the Gujarat batsmen were also not behind. Especially Sai Sudarshan and Washington Sundar shared an 84 -run partnership and maintained the team in the match. When it seemed that Gujarat was moving towards victory, Hardik called Bumrah.
Bumrah immediately replied, he made Sundar a clean bold on a tremendous yorker. Many people are calling it a “season ball”. After this, Sai Sudarshan was also dismissed for 80 and Gujarat’s innings was shattered.
Amazing in death overs
Bumrah’s 14th over was just 4 runs, then in the 18th over, he gave just 9 runs. Trent Bolt, Ashwani Kumar and Richard Glison, with him, bowled brilliantly in the last over and gave Mumbai an easy win.
Bumrah season fantastic
Bumrah has taken 18 wickets in 11 matches so far and his economy rate is only 6.36. In this season, where the batsmen are dominating, Bumrah’s performance is really amazing.
