Hardik Pandya, MI captain, scripted history by becoming the only captain to pick a five-wicket-haul in IPL. He unleashed his brilliance with the ball against LSG and fans couldn’t stop praising him on social media.

Mumbai Indians took on Lucknow Super Giants in the 16th match of the IPL 2025 season. LSG batted first and had a flyer start with a 69-run powerplay. Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram scored a fifty each.

However, MI skipper Hardik Pandya’s magnificent spell pressed brakes as he scripted history with the ball.

Hardik Pandya Stuns Fans With Record 5-Wicket-Haul

MI captain Hardik Pandya dropped a magical spell to script history. The all-rounder picked 5 wickets in his 4 overs spell, conceding 36 runs, thus becoming the first captain in the history of the IPL to pick a 5-fer.

He single-handedly wiped off the top and middle order of LSG by dismissing Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, captain Rishabh Pant, David Miller and Akash Deep.

Pandya’s five-wicket-haul truly changed the course of the game and fans on social media lauded his historic spell.

"The way Hardik kungfu Pandya has played today will end the IPL Career of vadapav sharma. Excellent bowling performance by Hardik and well deserved 5 wickets haul for him .
