New Delhi: The third Test of the five-Test series between India and England is being played at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. This historic ground once again witnessed the strong bowling performance of the Indian team, where Jasprit Bumrah caught everyone’s attention with his brilliant display. India bowled England out for 387 in the first innings, with Bumrah once again looking amazing. He not only put the team in a strong position with 5 wickets but also got himself on the Lord’s Honours Board.
When was the press conference and what happened?
Jasprit Bumrah attended the press conference after the second day’s play ended. That’s when a funny moment occurred — he was interrupted by a phone call on one of the journalists’ phones while talking to reporters.
Whose phone and what did Bumrah say?
“Someone’s wife is calling, but I won’t pick it up,” Bumrah said with a smile as the phone rang. The hilarious reaction quickly went viral on social media and was loved by fans.
Why is Bumrah’s performance special?
Bumrah rattled the England innings with figures of 5-74 by taking 5 wickets. He sent big batsmen like Harry Brook, Ben Stokes, Joe Root, Chris Woakes, and Jofra Archer back to the pavilion. It was his 16th five-wicket haul in Test cricket and 13th overseas.
Whose record did Bumrah break?
Bumrah broke the 34-year-old record of Kapil Dev, who had taken five wickets 12 times abroad. At the same time, Bumrah equaled Wasim Akram (11) for the most five-wicket hauls by an Asian bowler in SENA countries (South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia).
What are the other achievements?
Bumrah has also equaled the record of former Pakistan captain Imran Khan, who took the most five-wicket hauls on foreign soil. Bumrah’s historic achievement has earned him a higher place in Indian cricket history.
