IPL 2024: 5 Records that Jasprit Bumrah can break this season

Jasprit Bumrah, one of the biggest finds of the Indian Premier League (IPL), is currently ruling world cricket across formats. Before onboarding Bumrah in the 2013 season, Mumbai Indians (MI) would never have imagined that the pacer from Gujarat would accompany them on a decade-long journey and take them to greater heights.

The 30-year-old has been instrumental in MI's five IPL triumphs and will be aiming to contribute his best in the upcoming 2024 season. Having played 120 matches in the cash-rich league, Bumrah is currently the second-highest wicket-taker for MI with over 140 scalps. His intimidating bowling action and perfect execution are set to give the batters another hell of a time at the crease. At the same time, some records are also awaiting the ace fast bowler.

Here are the top 5 records that Jasprit Bumrah can break in IPL 2024

Most Wickets for MI in IPL history

Lasith Malinga has been MI's trump card for years and since the 2013 edition, he has got a perfect companion in Jasprit Bumrah. Under the guidance of the Sri Lanka legend, the Indian pacer flourished and established himself as the team's go-to bowler, even before the former's retirement.

With 170 wickets at an average of 19.79 from 122 IPL matches, Malinga is currently MI's leading wicket-taker. His successor Bumrah is second on the list with 145 wickets. The right-arm pacer needs 26 more wickets in the 2024 season to top the chart.
