Mumbai Indians faced Kings XI Punjab in a must-win game for both teams in the 2018 season of Indian Premier League. On the backdrop of Kieron Pollard's 22 balls 50, Mumbai romped up 186 in 20 overs. With a daunting task ahead, Punjab openers Chris Gayle & KL Rahul started off slowly against Bumrah scoring just a single off his first over.

But KL Rahul & Aaron Finch put on a century partnership and smashed Mumbai bowlers all around the Wankhede. Bumrah came back in the 17th over and broke 111 run partnership by dismissing Finch for 45. He came up with a fast bouncer and sent Marcus Stoinis to the dressing room in the same over.

He then gave the telling blow of the match as he out-foxed Rahul with a slower one in the penultimate over and helped Mumbai stay alive in the tournament. In his final spell, he picked up three wickets while giving away just 10 runs. His economy rate in the match was just 3.75 while the next best was 9.
