Following the match, Bumrah shared a heartwarming and humorous moment with his India teammate Mohammed Siraj. In a video shared by Mumbai Indians, Siraj playfully teased Bumrah with a viral dialogue—“Ghar ki yaad nahi aayi tujhe, Jassi?”—to which Bumrah responded with a cheeky remark, asking Siraj to get a haircut. The duo shared laughs and an embrace, highlighting their strong camaraderie built over years of playing together for India.
Their bond dates back to numerous matches across formats, including the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 final, where Bumrah delivered a match-winning spell of 2/18. After that game, Siraj had famously said, “I only believe in Jassi bhai, game changer player he is,” a line that continues to resonate with fans.
On the field, Bumrah made an immediate impact by dismissing Sai Sudharsan off the very first ball of the Titans’ innings, ending his lean patch in style.
Earlier, Mumbai Indians posted a formidable 199/5, powered by a sensational unbeaten century from Tilak Varma. The left-hander smashed a blistering ton off just 45 balls, scoring 82 runs in his final 23 deliveries in a breathtaking display of power hitting.
In response, Gujarat Titans faltered early as their key batters—Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler—were dismissed inside the powerplay. Mumbai’s bowlers maintained relentless pressure, eventually bowling out the Titans for just 100 runs.
Ashwani Kumar starred with the ball, picking up 4/24, including the crucial wicket of Gill, as Mumbai registered a massive 99-run victory.
This marked Mumbai Indians’ second win of the season. After breaking a long-standing streak with a win against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium, they had endured four consecutive defeats before bouncing back emphatically in Ahmedabad.
