Bumrah made an embarrassing record
Jasprit Bumrah was dismissed for a wicket on his birthday. In this way, a shameful record was recorded in the name of Bumrah. This is the fourth time in the history of Indian Test cricket that a player has been dismissed on his birthday. Earlier, Syed Kirmani was dismissed on his birthday in a Test match against West Indies in 1978. After this in the year 1996 in the Nottingham Test, Venkatapati Raju failed to open the account on his birthday in the Test match against England. After this, on the occasion of his birthday in the year 2018, Indian fast bowler Ishant Sharma returned to the pavilion after getting out for zero in the Southampton Test match against England and now this shameful record has been registered in the name of the birthday. Boy Bumrah.
Bumrah made history
The first day of the day-night Test match being played in Adelaide was in the name of hosts Australia. In reply to India’s 180 runs, Australia scored 86 runs after losing 1 wicket at the end of the first day’s play. Nathan McSweeney returned unbeaten on 38 and Marnus Labuchen returned unbeaten on 20. The only blow to Australia was given by Jasprit Bumrah in the form of Usman Khawaja. Khawaja returned to the pavilion after scoring 13 runs in the 11th over. With this one wicket, Jasprit Bumrah completed his 50 Test wickets in the year 2024. Bumrah is the third Indian bowler to do so. Only Kapil Dev and Zaheer Khan had done this before him. Zaheer Khan last took 51 wickets in Test cricket in 2002. That means after 22 years an Indian fast bowler has achieved a special place.
