Jasprit Bumrah has been underwhelming in 4th Test vs ENG [Source: AP]
Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah had a forgettable day in the office as he conceded 100 runs in a Test innings for the very first time in his illustrious career. Bumrah attained the infamous landmark on day 4 of the ongoing Test against England at Old Trafford, Manchester.
Bumrah Breaches 100-Run Mark With The Ball For 1st Time
Jasprit Bumrah hasn’t been at his best in the England series. The ace speedster, who bagged a sensational five-wicket-haul at Headingley, missed the subsequent encounter at Edgbaston due to workload management.
Although he scalped a fifer at Lord’s, his spell didn’t come in a winning cause, as India failed to chase 190-odd in the fourth innings. However, the fast bowler has been far from his best in Manchester, having already conceded more than hundred runs in the first innings.
Most Runs Conceded By Bumrah In A Test Innings
- 112* vs England, Manchester, 2025
- 99 vs Australia, Melbourne, 2024
- 88 vs New Zealand, Wellington, 2020
- 85 vs England, Nottingham, 2018
- 84 vs England, Chennai, 2021
As mentioned above, Bumrah registered his most expensive spell in Tests as soon as he conceded 100 runs in the Manchester encounter. Although the right-arm pacer went for 99 and 85 runs at MCG and Nottingham, he bagged four and five wickets, respectively, in those two innings. So his two for 112 (as of writing) is undoubtedly Bumrah's worst-ever bowling performance in the purest format.
Bumrah's ineffectiveness took a toll on India's overall performance at Old Trafford as the visitors struggled to get crucial breakthroughs. England exploited India's lacklustre bowling, piling up a mammoth score and ensuring a huge first-innings lead. As of writing, the English were 646 for eight, with Stokes and Carse batting on 134* and 35*, respectively.
