Jasprit Bumrah is one of the finest bowlers of this generation, and the beauty of his bowling is that he knows exactly what to do in a particular situation. He has proved that again in the second Test between India and Bangladesh as he bagged three crucial wickets to help India clean up the visitors for just 146. 

India now need just 95 to win the Test match and it has been a brilliant display of bowling by India on a pitch that is not that difficult for batting. The final wicket of Bangladesh's innings was of Mushfiqur Rahim who was batting well on 37, but Bumrah produced a magical slower delivery and and cleaned up Bangladesh's veteran batter.
