class="sp-story-body__introduction">West Indies fast bowler Alzarri Joseph returned the best bowling figures in Indian Premier League history on his debut in the Twenty20 competition.</p><p>Joseph, 22, took six wickets for 12 runs in 3.4 overs to bowl Mumbai Indians to a 40-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad.</p><p>He bowled opener David Warner with his first delivery before going on to beat Sohail Tanvir's previous mark of 6-14.</p><div id="bbccom_mpu_1_2_3" class="bbccom_slot" aria-hidden="true"> <div class="bbccom_advert"> <script type="text/javascript"> (function() { if

this," said Joseph.</p><p>Joseph joined Mumbai on 28 March after New Zealand's Adam Milne was ruled out of the competition because of a heel injury and was only playing in place of absent Sri Lanka paceman Lasith Malinga.</p><p>"I just wanted to bowl to the plans," added Joseph. "When they said I was playing, I decided to keep it simple and back myself."</p><p>Set 137 to win after Kieron Pollard's unbeaten 46 off 26 balls helped Mumbai post 136-7, the hosts were 33-2 after losing England opener Jonny Bairstow (16) and Australia's Warner (15) in quick succession.</p><p>Joseph then removed Vijay Shankar before returning to strike twice in successive deliveries in the 16th over, dismissing Deepak Hooda and Rashid Khan.</p><p>In his next over, Joseph bowled captain Bhuvneshwar Kumar before having last man Siddarth Kaul caught behind as the Sunrisers were bowled out for 96.</p><p>Pakistan left-arm seamer Tanvir set the previous record for Rajasthan Royals against Chennai Super Kings in the IPL's first edition in 2008.</p><p>Australia leg-spinner Adam Zampa is the only other bowler to take six wickets in IPL history, taking 6-19 for Rising Pune Supergiant in their defeat by Hyderabad in 2016.</p><p><i>You can listen to commentary on Indian Premier League
