Delhi Capitals’ Axar Patel gave a hilarious answer to the commentator when asked about where they lost the match after the defeat against the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2025 on Sunday. The spin-bowling all-rounder said ‘Mumbai ke paas’ as a video of the same emerged on social media following the match.
Mumbai ended Delhi’s four-match winning streak as they sneaked a 12-run victory at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday. Left to chase down 206, the Karun Nair spearheaded the home side’s run-chase with a blistering 40-ball 89. However, the five-time champions held their nerves in the end, affecting three consecutive run-outs to bowl the Capitals out for 193.
Deep Dasgupta asked Axar:
“Axar apke hisaab se match kaha pe gaya” (Axar, where did you think Delhi lost the match?)
The 31-year-old hilariously replied:
“Mumbai ke paas” (It went to Mumbai)
