Cummins stars on KKR return to overshadow Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah claimed an incredible 5-10 for the Mumbai Indians but was still upstaged in the Indian Premier League by the bowling exploits of Pat Cummins.

On his recall to the Kolkata Knight Riders XI, Australia's Test captain took three wickets in an over to set up victory for in Mumbai on Monday.

Cummins finished with 3-22 off his four overs as the home side were dismissed for 113, 52 runs adrift of KKR.

Cummins made a two-ball duck as Bumrah destroyed the KKR innings, reducing them from 3-136 in the 14th over, to 9-165 after 20. His haul included three wickets in four balls.

"I think I've played enough to not worry too much about the ups and downs, especially of T20 cricket. I looked at my first four games and was pretty honest that I didn't bowl particularly well.

"The last few games on the bench have been a good chance to look at Tim Southee who has been bowling fantastically well, so learning off someone like him and when I got my chance again just trying to be that little bit more disciplined."

With Aaron Finch dropped from the KKR playing XI side after a run of low scores, Venkatesh Iyer (43 off 24 balls) and Ajinkya Rahane (25 off 24) opened, putting on 60 for the first wicket.

Nitish Rana added 43 off 26 balls before becoming Bumrah's second victim after he had removed the dangerous Andre Russell for 9 off 5. 

Tasmanian Riley Meredith was expensive, going wicketless for 35 from his three overs, while Daniel Sams continued to impress with the new ball, taking 1-26.

Mumbai's reply was built around Ishan Kishan's 51 as wickets fell around him including million-dollar signing Tim David for 13 after blasting three fours in nine balls.

But Kishan fell first ball after Cummins' re-introduction in the 14th over as Mumbai went from 4-100 to 7-102. The increasingly chaotic innings concluded with three run-outs in four balls.

Mumbai remain bottom, their mini-revival halted while KKR are in seventh, still in the hunt for a playoff berth.
