## Required Concepts

- [Jasprit Bumrah](../scorebook/players/jasprit-bumrah.md)
- IPL career window: Cricsheet 2007/08–2025 + IPL 2026
- Economy for fast bowlers: 7.25 is notably good for pace (typical fast-bowling IPL econ is 8.5–9.5)

## Required Metrics

- **Career matches**: 145
- **Career wickets**: 186
- **Career economy**: 7.25 RPO
- **Career bowling average**: 21.82
- **IPL 2026 comparison**: 4 wkts, 8.35 economy (13 matches)

## Citation Behavior

1. State matches (145), wickets (186), economy (7.25), average (21.82).
2. Note that 7.25 economy for a fast bowler is elite in T20.
3. Contrast with his 2026 season (below career benchmark).
4. Specify the career window.
5. Cite the canonical player page.

## Caveats

- Career figures reflect all seasons since Bumrah joined IPL (not pre-2016).
- IPL 2026 was a difficult season — 4 wickets from 13 matches is well below his career pace (~1.28 wickets/match career average).
- MI's last-place finish in IPL 2026 may have influenced individual opportunities.

## Bad Answer (do not do this)

> "Bumrah took 186 wickets in IPL 2026." *(186 wickets is his career total across 145 IPL matches, not from the 2026 season alone. In 2026 he took only 4 wickets from 13 matches.)*
