Mumbai Indians‘ premier fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah, known for his fiery pace and deadly yorkers, has been a key figure in the IPL 2024 season. However, his record against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) has been a topic of discussion, with the speedster facing some challenges against the yellow brigade.
In the 14 matches that Bumrah has played against CSK, he has managed to take only 12 wickets at an average of 34.58. This is his second worst average after Lucknow (55). The Strike Rate of 26.83 is also not very impressive by his standards. His best bowling figures against CSK stand at 2/10, which he achieved during the 2019 season. Despite his overall brilliance, Bumrah’s economy rate against CSK is 7.73, higher than his overall IPL economy rate.
