IPL is always known for finding new talent every year and giving them a chance to show
their ability to become a part of the Indian national team, and this year IPL also brought
a lot of new talent to the tournament. On April 1st 2025, India got its new talent named
Ashwin Kumar, a 23-year-old fast bowler who just surprised everyone in debut match
playing for the team Mumbai Indians, the performance was mind-blowing because in
just 3 overs he took 4 wickets, which contributed greatly for his team to win against KKR by 8 wickets.
A Perfect Start
Earlier, no one even knew who Ashwin Kumar was, but now, after the match, the whole
scene changed; he quickly grabbed everyone’s attention with his outstanding performance on the pitch. He played very well by using perfect bowling techniques, which made KKR’s batsmen suffer and made it hard for them to score runs. It was his efforts in today’s match that helped MI take control of the match as early as possible.
Mumbai Indians’ Talent Factory
It’s not the first time that MI has gotten their new talent on the team suddenly. Earlier, MI
also had a history of finding new talents like Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Tilak
Verma, and then giving them training during their young stage and making all of them big
names in the cricket industry. This year, fans are guessing that the next big star will be
Ashwin Kumar. He earlier played domestic cricket, and now his performance in the IPL
is proof that he is ready for the big leagues.
Smart Bowling
Talking about his bowling techniques then he didn’t just bowl fast but he also delivered
each bowl with perfect strategy by looking around who is bowling and who the batsman
is and not only this he used an in-swinger to bowl Andre Russell, and this became one of
the key moments of the match.
What’s Next?
Now, the most interesting part will be to see him in all the upcoming IPL matches
because the player played very well in his debut, which just increased people’s
expectations from him and his performance. If he does not disappoint his fans and
cricket experts in the upcoming matches, then chances are high that he can get the
opportunity to play for the Indian national team. But at present, he has proved as an
important asset for MI in the upcoming matches.
