Mumbai Indians pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah sent the Wankhede Stadium into delirium as he dismissed Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) star Virat Kohli for a single-figure score in the ongoing IPL 2024 clash. The right-arm speedster struck in his first over of the innings as Ishan Kishan took a sharp catch behind the stumps by moving to his left.
The incident occurred in the 3rd over of the innings as Gerald Coetzee's line and lengths in the previous one had already unsettled the right-hander. Kohli looked to break the shackles by hammering the length ball from Bumrah to the leg side. However, the ball took an inside edge as Kishan took an excellent catch.
In the process, it became the 5th occasion in 16 innings that Bumrah has dismissed Kohli in IPL. The 35-year-old former RCB skipper has mustered 147 runs in 95 balls against Bumrah, striking at 147.36. Most of those runs have come in boundaries as Kohli has struck 15 fours and 5 sixes against the Ahmedabad-born cricketer.
