Top 6 performances of Mustafizur Rahman in IPL history
The 27-year-old Bangladesh bowler has been an unsung hero in a few games by delivering match-winning spells.
2. 3/24 for Mumbai Indians (MI) vs Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in 2018
Playing for his new franchise Mumbai Indians, Mustafizur again showed his sharp bowling skills by having a great time against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the seventh match. Defending an average score of 147, it was imperative for the MI bowlers to do wonders to emerge victorious in the game. With batters such as Shikhar Dhawan, Kane Williamson, Manish Pandey, Shakib Al Hasan, and Yusuf Pathan, the target was not difficult to chase for SRH
Both SRH openers Wriddhiman Saha and Shikhar Dhawan with their fearless batting approach pursued the target fearlessly by scoring 62 runs in just 6.5 overs. But Mayank Markande showed some courage by dismissing Saha but the perfect strike was done by Mustafizur Rahman by removing Kane Williamson from the crease on 6. With Williamson’s wicket, MI came back into the game with amazing bowling displays from Mustafizur, Markande, and Jasprit Bumrah.
In the end, SRH won the match by one wicket, but with Bumrah and Markande, Mustafizur again proved his potential with the ball by giving a tough time to SRH batters by delivering excellent figures of 3/24 in four overs.
