Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya's decision to bowl first was immediately challenged by Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) top order as Phil Salt delivered a breathtaking performance, dismantling the home side's bowling attack right from the powerplay. RCB ran up a near-insurmountable 240/4, scoring at 12 an over, but Bumrah returned with an economy of 8.75, the best among the MI bowlers.

Bumrah has now gone wicketless in five consecutive IPL games and is yet to open his account this season.
