MI vs LSG IPL 2025: Mumbai Indians star pacer Jasprit Bumrah etched his name in history as he became the Mumbai-based franchise's highest wicket-getter in this tournament. Bumrah had bowled the third over during the second innings in Mumbai and on the fourth ball he took Aiden Markram's wicket. Markram tried to go big but Naman Dhir took his catch as Markram could score just nine runs off 11 balls. It was his 171st wicket in this tournament for MI and he thus broke Lasith Malinga's record for taking 170 wickets.
In his 10-year-long IPL career for the Mumbai-based franchise, Malinga had represented them in 122 matches and taken 170 wickets, and at the same time, Bumrah has taken 171 wickets after playing in 139 matches.

Bumrah played his debut IPL match for the Mumbai-based franchise against RCB in 2013 and registered figures of 3/32 in the overs that he bowled. He got Virat Kohli ahead of the wicket and took his first wicket of this tournament.
Bumrah has taken two five-fors in this tournament and that is the most by any bowler. During IPL 2025, Bumrah was ruled out from the first four matches owing to a lower-back injury and thus made his comeback during their match against RCB in their backyard. But he went wicket-less in that game in the four wickets that he bowled.
