[WATCH]- Jasprit Bumrah Guides Kartik Tyagi with Bowling Advice After KKR vs MI Clash

Young fast bowler Kartik Tyagi received useful guidance from star pacer Jasprit Bumrah after the Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians match at Eden Gardens on Wednesday. Mumbai Indians’ disappointing IPL 2026 campaign continued with their ninth defeat of the season, but after the game, the focus shifted from competition to learning.

Bumrah was seen having a detailed discussion with the Uttar Pradesh pacer, sharing advice on how to improve yorkers. In a video posted by Mumbai Indians on social media, Bumrah suggested that Tyagi should practise yorkers in the nets when his body is most tired.

According to Bumrah, this helps bowlers adjust to the physical pressure of delivering accurate yorkers during the death overs.

Kolkata Knight Riders stayed in the playoff race with an important four-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians in a low-scoring match at Eden Gardens. After choosing to bowl first, KKR delivered a disciplined performance to limit MI to 147/8, with Sunil Narine and Cameron Green impressing on a challenging pitch.

Chasing the target, KKR lost wickets early before Manish Pandey played a steady knock of 45 at No. 3. He added a crucial 64-run partnership with Rovman Powell, who scored 40. Although KKR lost a few late wickets, the target remained manageable as Rinku Singh and Anukul Roy guided the side to victory with seven balls remaining.

The win moved KKR to sixth place with 13 points, though their playoff qualification still depends on other match results. Meanwhile, MI suffered their ninth defeat in 13 matches, continuing their disappointing season near the bottom of the table.
