Indian Premier League 2024: RCB player Mohammed Siraj bowed down to Jasprit Bumrah in a heartwarming moment of respect between them after the Mumbai Indians star pacer picked up a five-wicket haul in the recent match between MI and RCB.

Jasprit Bumrah completed the match with figures of 4-0-21-5 at Wankhede Stadium on Thursday (April 11) to play a big role in MI’s seven-wicket victory against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru team.

By taking 5 wickets in MI’s fifth game of the ongoing IPL season, BUmrah created multiple records. He became the first bowler in the world to take a five-wicket haul in the IPL against RCB and now holds the record for dismissing most RCB players in the cash-rich league.

Bumarh took 5 wickets for 21 in 4 overs, thus MI managed to restrict RCB to 196 runs in 20 overs and then chase down the 197-run target in 15.3 overs for the loss of just 3 wickets. After captain Hardik Pandya finished the game with a 6 on the third ball of the 16th over, Siraj paid the ultimate respect to Bumrah by bowing down to him when players from both teams shook hands with each other.
