Tendulkar Trophy Test: Former India head coach Ravi Shastri has declared fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah as the best seamer the country has ever produced in its history of playing men’s international cricket.
Bumrah ended day two of first Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test with figures of 3-48 from 12 overs, even as the rest of Indian bowling line-up failed to provide him with any support. He could have had even better figures if Ravindra Jadeja hadn’t put down Ben Duckett’s at backward point on 15.
Bumrah had dismissed Harry Brook at the stroke of stumps on day two, but replays showed it was a no-ball. "There is no question he is India's greatest fast bowler. I played with Kapil Dev but this guy is different. He can take any opposition apart, on any surface, in any format."
