In a lighthearted moment during the highly anticipated IPL match between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on April 7, 2025, Jasprit Bumrah found himself at the center of a humorous incident.
After bowling a dot ball against Rajat Patidar, the ball came back to Bumrah, who, in a playful gesture, pretended to throw it towards the non-striker's end in an attempt to 'run out' Virat Kohli, who was standing there.
The incident occurred during the 11th over of RCB's innings. Bumrah, known for his quick wit and sense of humor, suddenly feigned a throwing motion, as if trying to catch Kohli off guard. The crowd erupted in laughter, and even Kohli couldn't help but crack a smile.
