As the Mumbai Indians prepare for a crucial clash against Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025, star pacer Jasprit Bumrah took a break from cricket to celebrate a special moment off the field — his wife Sanjana Ganesan’s birthday. And his touching tribute has melted hearts across social media.
A Heartfelt Birthday Wish for Sanjana
On May 6, just hours before MI’s key encounter, Bumrah took to his Instagram and X handles to share a heartwarming video of Sanjana Ganesan dancing candidly — a moment that exuded joy and warmth.
Accompanying the clip was a short but deeply personal message:
“Happy birthday, my love. Wishing you all the happiness and love forever.”
The cricketer also gave fans a glimpse into their personal lives, adding:
“Angad and I will always be by your side, through thick and thin.”
Fans and fellow cricketers flooded the post with likes and heartfelt comments, lauding the couple for their grounded relationship and celebrating Sanjana’s special day alongside them.
The Bumrah-Ganesan Love Story
Jasprit Bumrah and Sanjana Ganesan, a sports presenter and former Miss India finalist, first met during an interview during an IPL season. Their friendship soon blossomed into love, and the couple tied the knot on March 15, 2021, in an intimate ceremony in Goa attended by close family and friends.
Despite being public figures, the couple has always maintained a low profile when it comes to their private lives. That said, they occasionally treat fans to glimpses of their bond through heartfelt posts and candid moments.
In September 2023, the couple welcomed their first child, a son named Angad, marking a new chapter in their lives. Sanjana, who took a break from her professional commitments during that period, has since returned to hosting major cricket events, often balancing her personal and professional roles with poise.
Jasprit Bumrah Red-Hot Form in IPL 2025
While Jasprit Bumrah may have missed the first four matches of the IPL 2025 season due to injury, he’s made a thunderous comeback with vintage performances that remind fans why he remains one of the most lethal bowlers in world cricket.
In Mumbai Indians’ previous game against Rajasthan Royals, Jasprit Bumrah delivered his most economical spell of the season, conceding just 15 runs in 4 overs and picking up two crucial wickets. His control, especially in the death overs, has been pivotal to MI’s winning run.
Jasprit Bumrah IPL 2025 Stats (So Far):
- Matches Played: 7
- Wickets Taken: 11
- Economy Rate: 7.00
- Best Spell: 2/15 vs RR
He currently holds the second-best economy rate among fast bowlers in IPL 2025, trailing only behind Chennai Super Kings’ Matheesha Pathirana.
Mumbai Indians: Strong Contenders for Playoffs
After a shaky start to the season, Mumbai Indians have bounced back in style. Under Hardik Pandya’s leadership, the five-time champions are on a six-match winning streak and now sit third on the IPL 2025 points table.
- Points: 14 (from 11 matches)
- Net Run Rate: +1.274
- Remaining Matches: 3
- Maximum Possible Points: 20
If MI maintain their current momentum, they could easily secure a top-two finish, giving them a significant advantage heading into the playoffs.
Final Word
While Jasprit Bumrah continues to destroy batting line-ups with his pinpoint yorkers and lethal pace, it’s his grounded persona off the field that continues to win hearts. His sweet tribute to Sanjana is yet another reminder that behind the fierce competitor lies a deeply devoted family man.
Fans will be eager to see Jasprit Bumrah magic with the ball again as Mumbai Indians aim to lock in a playoff berth — and perhaps, dedicate a victory to Sanjana’s birthday.
As the season intensifies, Bumrah’s form will be crucial for MI’s title hopes.
And with family cheering him on, the star pacer looks more motivated than ever.
