The Mumbai Indians, a powerhouse in the Indian Premier League (IPL), have seen their fair share of highs and lows. However, not all records are ones to cherish.

There have been times when their bowlers have had matches they’d rather forget. Here’s a look at the top 5 most expensive spells by Mumbai Indians bowlers in IPL history:

1. Luke Wood (2024):

The English pacer leads the pack. During the recent match against Delhi Capitals, Wood conceded a whopping 68 runs in his four overs, setting a new record for the most runs leaked by a Mumbai Indians bowler in an IPL match.

2. Kwena Maphaka (2024):

Just a few weeks before Luke Wood’s forgettable spell, South African debutant Kwena Maphaka had held this record. Maphaka gave away 66 runs in his four overs against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

3. Lasith Malinga (2017):

The usually reliable Lasith Malinga also had a night to forget in 2017. The Sri Lankan sling-slinger conceded 58 runs in his four overs against Kings XI Punjab [Now Punjab Kings].

4. Hardik Pandya (2019):

Even the multi-talented Hardik Pandya couldn’t escape a rough outing. Pandya, who is now the captain of Mumbai, once leaked 57 runs in his four overs during IPL 2019 against Punjab Kings.
