Borrowed Rs 30 For Auto, Rejected By KKR, CSK, RR: MI's Ashwani Kumar Sets IPL On Fire

Mumbai Indians seem to have unleashed another pace sensation in the form of Ashwani Kumar, who made a dream debut in the Indian Premier League (IPL) Monday, delivering a match-winning performance against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). The young seamer from Jhanjheri, Mohali, was the star with the ball, picking up 4/24 in his three-over spell and playing an instrumental role in restricting KKR to 116. Bought for his base price of INR 30 lakh in the IPL mega auction, Ashwani has had to go through severe hardships before making an explosive debut in the IPL.
