IPL 2025 | Jacks emerges as a reliable spin option for MI
The Hindu
Will Jacks shines as an IPL all-rounder, excelling with bat and ball for Mumbai Indians in 2025.
Will Jacks may have emerged as an Indian Premier League superstar after his blockbuster 41-ball unbeaten 100 for Royal Challengers Bengaluru against Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2024 edition.
Cut to 2025, and Jacks has proven to be more than a handy off-spinner for his new IPL outfit.
In a format where the role of a offie is increasingly getting redundant, Jacks has emerged as Mumbai Indians’ reliable spin option.
And his all-round display — two for 14 off three overs and 36 off 26 balls — meant he walked away with the Player-of-the-Match award against
Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday night.
Jacks not only contained the ferocious left-handed trio of Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head and Ishan Kishan — dismissing the last two — but
also displayed his prowess on a sticky surface by bowling five dot balls to Heinrich Klaasen, arguably the best batter against spin in limited-overs cricket.
