Jasprit Bumrah has undoubtedly been the best bowler of both teams during the current India vs England 1st test competition. Despite taking a five -year -old in the first innings, the Pacer was abandoned by his colleague teammates who dropped 3 catches who could have won his Wickets count even further.
With the Fifer on Sunday, Bumrah also passed Pakistani Great Wasim Akram who held the record for most wickets through an Asian pacer in the Sena Coutnries (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia).
While Bumrah was the only Wicket tone for India during day 2 of the game, he received some quality support on day 3 when Prasidh Krishna made a comeback to take three wickets, while Mohammed Siraj also achieved 2 Scalps.
Sachin Tendulkar praises Jasprit Bumrah:
Tendulkar congratulated the Indian Pacer in a message about X (formerly Twitter) and wrote: “Congratulations Bumrah! A no-ball and 3 missed opportunities were between you and 𝙣𝙖𝙪 Wickets.”
In particular, Bumrah Harry Brooks had rejected in the recurring hours of day 2, but later the referee revealed that the bowler had exceeded the fold and that the dismissal was invalid.
Then Brook – who was on his debut for the National Test Team – scored 99 runs before he was fired by Prasidh Krishna.
What did Bumrah say about bad fieldwork?
During a press conference after the end of the game on day 3, Bumrah said: “You have to continue with the game. So that's what I look to do. Not too far to go in my head and try to forget it quickly because they are all new in the game, the first time the ball is more busy. That, I am angry, I kick the box.”
