National Treasure? Naah, more like ASIAN TREASURE!

By Mumbai Indians

Jasprit Bumrah – the man, the myth, the walking highlight reel!

From being India’s pace spearhead to now becoming the Asian bowler with the most wickets in SENA nations in Tests, Bumrah is rewriting history, one scalp at a time! Guess who he’s overtaking? None other than the legendary Wasim Akram! 🙌

…And how did he achieve it? By getting the better of opening batter Ben Duckett on Day 2 of the India Tour of England 2025 curtain raiser.

Over the past few years, BOOM has been in absolute beast mode. Injuries tried to slow him down, but Jassi came back stronger, sharper and scarier than ever! 💥

Whether it’s swinging it in in England, bouncing out batters in Australia, nailing toe-crushers in South Africa or enjoying Kiwis in New Zealand – Bumrah’s been turning Test matches into his own little bowling clinic. 🤙

This record is so much more than just numbers – it’s about consistency, class and कडक performances, time and again. ♾️ Our very own superstar has added another feather to his cap and we couldn’t be prouder.

Keep ‘em coming, boi! 💙 Paltan’s cheering and the world’s watching in awe!
