Venkatesh Iyer cleaned bowled by Bumrah (AP Photos)
Jasprit Bumrah's love story with perfect yorkers is a sight to behold! The man just keeps on delivering unplayable deliveries, bamboozling best of the batters in world with his world-class skills. In the 51st game of IPL 2024 between MI and KKR he once again got two wickets with yorkers, and one of those was of half-centurion Venkatesh Iyer to shut down KKR for 169.
It was the final over of Kolkata Knight Riders' innings and Bumrah bowled a perfect yorker as he often does and Venkatesh Iyer who was trying a fancy scoop shot, missed it completely to see his middle stump uprooted.

The MI speedster ended with a three-wicket haul and delivered a death-bowling masterclass to keep KKR in check at the backend. Earlier, Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bowl first and KKR were soon reduced to 57-5.
Manish Pandey then joined hands with Venkatesh Iyer and the duo stitched together a 87-run stand to bring KKR back on track. However, they could not finish off on a high, and going by the standards of Wankhede, their first innings total of 169 looks below-par.
