Vignesh Puthur took the prized scalp of Mitchell Marsh in the IPL 2025 clash between the Mumbai Indians (MI) and the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Friday, April 4. The left-arm wrist spinner provided the crucial breakthrough as Marsh perished for 60 runs off 31 balls, a knock laced with two maximums and nine boundaries.
The dismissal came in the seventh over of LSG’s innings. Vignesh, who hails from Kerala, bowled a tossed up delivery and Marsh tried to play it towards the on-side but got a leading edge back to the bowler, who took a smart reflex catch while diving towards his left.
