Jasprit Bumrah’s Witty Dig at Trent Boult’s Spin Bowling Leaves MI Camp in Splits
Just when you think the intensity of IPL 2025 playoffs couldn’t get any higher, the Mumbai Indians gave us a hilarious and wholesome moment that’s winning the internet. Ahead of their much-anticipated Eliminator clash against the Gujarat Titans, a training session turned into a comedy hour courtesy of Trent Boult—and a brutally honest one-liner from Jasprit Bumrah.
Picture this: you’re at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, where MI’s players are going through their final drills. The atmosphere is serious, sure—but not without room for some good-hearted fun. That’s when Trent Boult decided to step up—not with his usual pace bowling brilliance—but with a playful impersonation of fellow Kiwi Mitchell Santner's left-arm spin action.

The attempt was, let’s just say, far from perfect. The delivery? Wayward. The action? A dramatic, exaggerated version of Santner’s smooth left-arm spin. The MI camp burst into laughter, and Jasprit Bumrah couldn’t resist the opportunity for a zinger. “That’s why we should stick to fast bowling,” Bumrah quipped, in classic deadpan style.
It was a moment of levity that perfectly captured the chemistry within the MI squad. Even under pressure, these seasoned pros know how to keep things light. Boult, who returned to Mumbai Indians this season for a hefty ₹12.5 crore price tag, has been crucial with the ball—he’s the third leading wicket-taker of IPL 2025 with 19 scalps and a solid economy rate of 8.5. Bumrah, his longtime bowling partner and key architect of MI’s 2020 title win, continues to be his reliable partner in crime.
Moments like this aren't just funny—they’re telling. They show a team that’s tightly knit, confident, and in sync heading into a knockout game. Whether it’s Bumrah’s sly humor or Boult’s willingness to make everyone laugh at his own expense, MI’s dressing room vibe is clearly one of mutual respect and camaraderie.
As the Mumbai Indians prepare for a do-or-die face-off against Gujarat Titans, this clip of Boult’s “spin special” and Bumrah’s savage reply is a reminder of how powerful a positive team culture can be. Cricket, after all, is not just about runs and wickets—it’s about personality, chemistry, and those unforgettable moments that make fans fall in love with the game all over again.
Stay tuned, because if MI’s spirits stay this high, they might just spin this laughter into playoff glory.
