Ravi Bishnoi's Six off Jasprit Bumrah: Rishabh Pant's Priceless Reaction

In a thrilling encounter between Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants, a unique moment of play took center stage when Ravi Bishnoi hit Jasprit Bumrah for a massive six. The incident occurred during the 18th over of Lucknow's chase, where Bumrah, known for his immaculate line and length, was having a stellar spell. Despite bowling four dot balls in his first five deliveries, the Mumbai pacer faced a setback when Bishnoi stepped up and smashed a length ball into the stands over long-on for a six.

This rare occurrence drew laughter from the players, with Bishnoi pumping his fists in celebration. Meanwhile, Bumrah could only smile in response, and even LSG captain Rishabh Pant couldn't contain his amusement. The moment quickly became the talk of the game, highlighting the mix of competitive spirit and sportsmanship in the IPL.

The match itself was dominated by Mumbai Indians, who defeated Lucknow Super Giants by 54 runs. Jasprit Bumrah’s exceptional figures of 4 for 22 were key to Mumbai's success, which also marked their fifth consecutive victory. This performance not only propelled Mumbai to the second spot in the IPL 2025 standings but also saw Bumrah surpass Lasith Malinga's IPL wicket record, taking his total to 174 wickets.

In the batting department, Mumbai posted a daunting 215/7, thanks to strong contributions from South Africa's Ryan Rickleton (58) and Suryakumar Yadav (54). Despite Lucknow's initial resistance, including a brisk 42-run opening partnership between Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran, the Mumbai bowlers, especially Bumrah and Trent Boult, ensured a comfortable victory for the five-time IPL champions.

Lucknow’s chase fell short as wickets tumbled consistently. The Mumbai bowlers, including Will Jacks and Boult, dismantled the Lucknow middle-order, and Bumrah’s late overs sealed the game. The win was not just a morale booster for Mumbai but also a historical one, marking their 150th IPL victory.
