Watch: Jasprit Bumrah and Karun Nair Indulges into Verbal Fight During DC vs MI in IPL 2025

Things just got intense as the Mumbai Indians (MI) ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah and Delhi Capitals’ substitute batter Karun Nair got into heated argument after the latter completely dominated India’s best pace bowler currently.

While chasing a target of 206 runs, Delhi Capitals brought in Karun Nair as a surprise impact sub for the match. It was Karun’s first match of the season and he played one of the most memorable knock of the season.

Coming in at number 3, ahead of star batter KL Rahul, there were already a lot of pressure beside the target of 206 runs. But Karun had absolutely different plans. The Indian batter played a magnificent knock of 89 runs off 40 balls.

Since coming onto the crease, Karun Nair didn’t take any time and started hitting the bowlers with the target in mind. However, one of the most interesting thing about his inning is that he dominated India’s leading pace bowler right now, Jasprit Bumrah. Not only that, he didn’t even leave anything for the likes of Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar.

The Mumbai Indians bowlers were frustrated so much so that Jasprit Bumrah got into verbal argument with the Delhi Capitals batter. The umpires and MI captain Hardik Pandya had to call things down. Watch the video below.

Mumbai Indians win by 12 runs

Meanwhile, it is in-fact the Mumbai Indians who have walked out victorious in this match. Despite the valiant efforts of Karun Nair and Abhishek Porel at the top, 89 and 33 runs respectively, no other Delhi Capitals batters could many much of an inroad.

KL Rahul who was hero for the side in the last few matches, was dismissed after 15 runs while the likes of Axar Patel, Tristan Stubbs, Jake Fraser-McGurk all were fairly disappointing.

Hat-trick of run out

Despite all of that, the crucial 89 runs inning from Karun Nair had already put Delhi Capitals on the front foot. But, they lost the match after a hat-trick of run out in the 19th over.

The back-to-back run out of Ashutosh Sharma, Kuldeep Yadav and Mohit Sharma off the 19th over bowled by Jasprit Bumrah saw Delhi Capitals lose by 12 wickets from a very comfortable position at once. With that, Delhi Capitals is no longer an undefeated outfit in the IPL 2025 season.
