Ace Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah continued his onslaught on the Englishmen in the ongoing Test series, scalping two quick wickets to rattle the visitors in the ongoing Test in Dharamsala. 

Bumrah, who is leading the Indian team in Rohit Sharma's absence, dismissed Tom Hartley and Mark Wood in quick succession to demoralise the Englishmen. 

Before getting Wood with a toe-crushing yorker, the Indian speedster trapped Hartley plumb in front of the stumps with a menacing reverse-swinging delivery. 

The incident occurred in the 35th over when Bumrah brought himself back into the attack for the first time in the post-lunch session. 

After starting the over with a dot ball, Bumrah bowled a good length delivery that swung away in the air from Hartley, beating him on his defence in this process. 

As soon as the ball hit Hartley's back pad, the hosts appealed for an LBW, with the on-field umpire deciding in their favour. It looked so plumb in real time that Hartley eventually decided against going upstairs to challenge the call. 

Soon after getting Hartley, Bumrah got rid of Mark Wood with an accurate yorker. His sensational bowling left England reeling in the game. They were placed at 161 for eight, with Joe Root and Shoaib Bashir fighting a lost battle as of writing.
