2. Jasprit Bumrah goes wicketless
Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah couldn’t manage to pick up a single wicket in the ICC World Test Championship Final. Bumrah, who is considered as the leader of the Indian pacer attack bowling attack looked a bit off-color throughout the test match.
He bowled a total of 37 overs in the match, conceding 92 runs, with 11 maidens in the test, but the wicket columns were empty. The Indian pacer did create few wicket opportunities, but the luck wasn’t on his side. Like in the 30th over of the fourth innings, Ross Taylor poked at outside off delivery by Bumrah, but the fielder in the slips cordon, Cheteshwar Pujara couldn’t hold on to the catch.
In an all-important game like the ICC World Test Championship final, India’s lead pacer going wicketless turned to be a major concern for the Indian team.
