Bumrah the Purple cap holder

RCB score 66 in the last five overs to put up a score that would give their bowlers some hope. Three of their batters scored half-centuries but nobody else could touch double digits. Du Plessis was positive in his 40-ball 61 while both Patidar (50) and DK (53*) bossed the Mumbai bowlers. But by Mumbai bowlers, I mean everyone except Jasprit Bumrah. He took 5 for 21 and had two hat-trick chances.
