The son of Mumbai Indians (MI) all-rounder Mohammad Nabi’s son stole the spotlight during a practice session ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash between MI and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). As both teams find themselves towards the bottom half of the table in the ongoing season, the anticipation for their match at the Wankhede Stadium on April 11 is palpable.

Mohammad Nabi Jr.’s spotlight moment in the MI practice session

During MI’s practice session, Nabi’s son showcased impressive batting skills, drawing comparisons to legendary MS Dhoni with his execution of the ‘helicopter’ shot.

However, it was his reverse sweep shot that particularly caught the attention of RCB star  Glenn Maxwell, who was present at the stadium for his team’s practice.

Glenn Maxwell’s admiration for the reverse sweep

As Nabi Jr. displayed his talent with the reverse sweep, Maxwell, observing from a distance, couldn’t help but express his admiration for the youngster’s skill. The moment captured on video, published by MI’s social media account on X, showcased the camaraderie and appreciation for the talent that transcends team boundaries.

Here’s the video:

The recent form of Maxwell and Nabi

Making his debut for Mumbai in the recent face-off against Delhi Capitals (DC), Nabi showcased his bowling prowess, although he didn’t have an opportunity to display his batting skills. Despite MI breaking their streak of three consecutive losses and securing their first win of the tournament, Nabi’s steady performance underscored his reliability.

On the other hand, RCB, after facing defeat in four of their initial five matches, are keen to reverse their fortunes and return to the path of victory. Maxwell, in particular, will be striving to rediscover his batting form amidst RCB’s quest for success in the tournament.
