DC vs MI: IPL is called the league of youth, but today this platform proved to be a golden opportunity for the uncrowned king of Team India. The triple centurion of the Indian team did not shy away from hitting a four on the occasion and has knocked the door of BCCI by wreaking havoc in the very first match of this season. We are talking about Karun Nair, for whom the saying 'Who saw the peacock dancing in the jungle...' fits. Nair was seen scoring a lot of runs in domestic cricket, he was not noticed. But now by starting IPL 2025 with a bang, he has forced the selectors to think. 

Delhi's star batsman Faf du Plessis was injured before this match. Karun Nair got a chance as an impact player. As soon as he came, he started showing his hitting show. Nair has made a mark by scoring a half-century in just 22 balls. After 3 years, Karun Nair entered the IPL and has created a stir with his explosive batting. He scored 26 runs off 9 balls of Bumrah.

Bumrah was beaten up

Jasprit Bumrah is one of the best bowlers in the world. But Karun Nair did not spare even Bumrah. When Nair faced Bumrah for the first time, he hit two fours in the over. After this, when he faced Bumrah for the second time, he completed his fifty in a fiery style by hitting 2 sixes and a four. After his fiery innings, he has sent a message to the BCCI. 8 years ago, Karun Nair made a surprise entry in Team India by hitting a triple century. However, since then he has not been able to make a comeback.

Delhi faces a target of 206 runs

Mumbai Indians team has set a target of 206 runs for Delhi. Suryakumar Yadav played a quick innings of 40 runs for Mumbai. Tilak Verma also scored his second consecutive half century. At the same time, Ryan Rickelton played an important role in taking the team's score to 205 by scoring 41 runs. Delhi team has laid the foundation of victory by chasing this target. Nair played an innings of 85 runs in 40 balls in which he hit 12 fours and 5 brilliant sixes.
