Jasprit Bumrah Viral Video: “Hey, he is not even hitting” – Bumrah sledged the English batsman in the middle of the match.

After setting a mammoth target of 557 runs, the Indian bowlers completely dominated England and won the third Test by 434 runs to take a 2-1 lead in the five-match series. Bumrah took one wicket each in both the innings of the third Test and in the entire match he took two wickets for 72 runs. But the English batsmen were playing cautiously against him. When the England team was struggling while chasing the target in the second innings of the third Test, Bumrah took a jibe after bowling the 11th over.

He understands the DNA of the game. He hit three sixes in one over off Jimmy Anderson. Once he reached 180, he said he would not rush. He is not satisfied with the century.”
