**Mumbai, India** – Vighnesh Puthur, the Mumbai Indians’ Malayalam-speaking bowler, continues to impress in IPL 2025. In a match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Puthur once again struck in his opening over, dismissing dangerous batsman Devdutt Padikkal. This follows a similar performance against Lucknow, where he dismantled their opening partnership in his first over.
Brought into the attack as Mumbai’s seventh bowling option by Hardik Pandya, Puthur broke a crucial 90-run partnership between Virat Kohli and Padikkal. Padikkal, attempting a long-on shot, was caught by Will Jacks for 37 runs off 22 balls.
Puthur has quickly become a reliable bowler for Mumbai Indians, proving crucial in breaking partnerships at critical moments. He has already taken six wickets in four matches this season, with a remarkable three-wicket haul in his debut match against Chennai Super Kings as an impact player. Fans are eagerly anticipating further impressive performances from the young bowler as the season progresses.
