The iconic Wankhede Cricket Stadium ground has been the primary home for Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League since the inception of the prestigious tournament in 2008. The atmosphere in Mumbai during the IPL match has been electrifying, with fans cheering their team.
The ground has witnessed stellar batting performance due to their short boundaries. Despite that, many bowlers went on to shine here with their bowling performance. Speaking about the same subject, here are the top three bowling performances at the Wankhede Cricket Stadium in IPL history.
1. Harbhajan Singh for Mumbai Indians
Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh has the best record at the historic Wankhede Cricket Stadium. The star spinner picked up a five-wicket haul while conceding just 18 during the 25th match against CSK in the IPL 2011. The hosts piled up 164/4 in the allotted 20 overs of the game. However, Harbhajan’s lethal spell bundled out CSK for 156 and guided MI to win the epic clash by eight runs.
2. Wanindu Hasaranga for Royal Challengers Bangalore
The Sri Lankan all-rounder placed himself at the second spot in recording the best bowling figures at Wankhede Cricket Stadium. The star spinner has also picked up a five-wicket haul while conceding just 18 runs during the 54th game of the IPL 2022 against SRH. RCB posted 192/3 in the allotted 20 overs after Faf du Plessis’s blistering knock. However, Hasaranga’s lethal bowling spell in Mumbai restricted SRH to just 125 runs and guided RCB to win the epic clash by a huge margin.
3. Jasprit Bumrah for Mumbai Indians
The Indian star cricketer also placed himself at the third spot in registering the best figures in the Wankhede Cricket Stadium. The right-arm pacer picked up a five-wicket haul while conceding 21 runs during the 25th game of the IPL 2024 against RCB.
