Lucknow Super Giants player Ravi Bishnoi was left ecstatic and pulled off a wild celebration after hitting none other than Mumbai Indians star Jasprit Bumrah for a six during their IPL 2025 clash on 27 April. Despite LSG being in a very troublesome position during their 216-run chase, the LSG spinner could not hold back from celebrating his rare achievement against the in-form MI pace spearhead.
The moment came on the final ball of the 18th over of LSG’s innings and was even more special for Bishnoi, considering Bumrah’s devastating spell. Bumrah had already wreaked havoc with the ball, claiming a four-wicket haul — three of those scalps coming in his previous over. Bishnoi, after dispatching the final ball of Bumrah’s spell for a six, punched the air in delight, a moment that even brought smiles to both Bumrah and the disheartened LSG dugout.
IPL 2025, MI vs LSG: Highlights
Bishnoi’s maximum off Bumrah was only the second six of his entire 76-match IPL career, further highlighting the unlikeliness of the moment. Although the six carried very little impact on the overall result, it was a personal high for Bishnoi amid a heavy defeat, as LSG eventually lost the clash by 54 runs.
Earlier, Mumbai Indians had posted a commanding total of 215 runs, powered by Ryan Rickelton’s 58 and Suryakumar Yadav’s 54-run knocks. It was ultimately Bumrah’s bowling brilliance that sealed a dominant 54-run victory for Mumbai, further bolstering their strong IPL 2025 campaign.
