Ravi Bishnoi Faces Heat as MI Batters Dominate in IPL 2025 Clash

In the high-stakes IPL 2025 Match 45 between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Mumbai Indians (MI) at Wankhede Stadium, leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi encountered a challenging spell as MI’s batters took an aggressive approach against him.​


Early Overs: Ravi Bishnoi’s Introduction and Initial Impact

Introduced into the attack during the powerplay, Bishnoi aimed to curb the scoring rate and provide breakthroughs. However, MI’s openers, particularly Ryan Rickelton, took the initiative. In the 4th over, Rickelton launched Bishnoi for a six, setting the tone for the innings. Despite maintaining a tight line and length in subsequent deliveries, the momentum had shifted in MI’s favor.​


Middle Overs: Suryakumar Yadav Targets Bishnoi

As the innings progressed, Suryakumar Yadav capitalized on the foundation laid by the openers. In the 10th over, he executed a slog sweep off Bishnoi, sending the ball over deep mid-wicket for a six. This aggressive approach further dented Bishnoi’s figures and highlighted MI’s strategy to unsettle LSG’s spin attack.


Statistical Snapshot: Bishnoi’s Spell Against MI

  • Overs Bowled: 4
  • Runs Conceded: 35
  • Wickets Taken: 0
  • Economy Rate: 8.75​

While Bishnoi managed to bowl a few dot balls and maintain pressure in patches, the lack of wickets and the boundaries conceded proved costly for LSG.​


What Lies Ahead

Ravi Bishnoi’s performance against MI underscores the challenges spinners face on batting-friendly pitches like Wankhede. For LSG to strengthen their playoff aspirations, recalibrating their bowling strategies and providing better support to their spinners will be crucial. Bishnoi, known for his resilience, will aim to bounce back stronger in the upcoming fixtures.​
