The fan was clearly extremely ecstatic to receive Bumrah's prized possession and an autograph from one of the world's best as he was seen running around the stands with expressions of joy on his face. The fan was indeed given a 'core memory' that he would remember forever.
“That child now has a core memory for life #MumbaiMeriJaan #MumbaiIndians #LSGvMI | @Jaspritbumrah93,” MI tweeted.
Bumrah is the leading wicket-taker so far this season, with 14 scalps in 10 matches at an average of 18.28 and an economy rate of 6.40. His best figures are 5/21. However, his rich bowling form has not helped his team as they sit at the ninth spot in the points table with three wins and seven losses.
At the match, LSG won the toss and chose to field first. Mumbai Indians couldn't get going from the start and lost four wickets for 27 runs within the powerplay itself. Nehal Wadhera (46 in 41 balls, with four boundaries and two sixes), Ishan Kishan (32 in 36 balls, with three fours) and Tim David (35* in 18 balls, with three fours and a six) did their best, but could take their side to just 144/7 in their 20 overs.
Mohsin Khan (2/36) was the pick of the bowlers for Australia while Marcus Stoinis, Mayank Yadav, Naveen ul Haq and Stoinis got a wicket each.
In the chase of 145 runs, LSG also faced a tough challenge from MI bowlers and lost wickets at regular intervals. Stoinis' knock of 62 in 45 balls, with seven fours and two sixes, proved just enough to take LSG to a four-wicket win with four balls and four wickets to spare. Stoinis took home the 'Player of the Match' award.
LSG are in third place with six wins and four losses, giving them 12 points.
