Mumbai Indians’ new pace sensation, Ashwani Kumar, lit up the IPL 2025 season with a stunning debut on Monday, April 1.

Mohali, a 22-year-old from Jhanjheri, took 4 wickets for just 24 runs in three overs against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), limiting their score to 116 runs. Purchased for INR 30 lakh at the mega auction, Ashwani’s impressive performance at Wankhede Stadium showcases his remarkable journey from humble beginnings to success.

Ashwani’s father, Harkesh Kumar, shared with the Indian Express, “Regardless of the weather, whether rain or heat, Ashwani never missed a training session at PCA Mohali or Mullanpur. He would cycle, hitch rides, or borrow Rs 30 to share an auto.” His dedication has certainly paid off. “When Mumbai Indians picked him for Rs 30 lakh, I recognized his worth. Each wicket he takes reminds me of his 5 AM wake-ups after returning home at 10 PM,” Harkesh added.

Although he was rejected by KKR, Chennai Super Kings, and Rajasthan Royals, Ashwani idolized Jasprit Bumrah and Mitchell Starc, and now he is stepping into Bumrah’s shoes.

Ashwani’s brother, Shiv Rana, shared, “He’d pool money with friends for balls. After MI signed him, he gave kits to local academies. He dreamed of a jersey with his name. Now, kids will wear it.” His mother beamed, “He’ll crave besan ka chilla and aloo paratha tonight.” Earning Player of the Match, Ashwani’s journey from borrowing Rs 30 to rocking the IPL has fans buzzing about MI’s newest star.
