The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Mumbai Indians (MI) was a close contest. While the match itself showcased impressive skills on both sides, a true moment of sportsmanship emerged after the final buzzer. Jasprit Bumrah, Mumbai’s premier bowler emerged as a star of the match. He ripped through the RCB batting order with a five-wicket haul and guided his team to a comprehensive victory. Following this dominant display, Mohammed Siraj from RCB acknowledged Bumrah’s brilliance with a respectful bow.

In his five matches played so far, he has picked up 10 wickets with an exceptional economy rate of 5.95, a remarkable feat in T20 cricket. His recent five-wicket haul against RCB further underlines his dominant return to form.
