Jasprit Bumrah's Remarkable Contribution Despite Low Score in 3rd Test

Bumrah's Impactful Performance

In the 61st over of the third Test match between India and England at Lord's, Jasprit Bumrah faced a challenging moment as he lost his wicket at a critical juncture. He stepped onto the field when India was struggling at 112 runs with 8 wickets down. Partnering with Ravindra Jadeja, Bumrah managed to score 5 runs. Notably, his effort contributed to a partnership of 37 runs, marking it as the second-highest 9th wicket partnership for India at Lord's, and the most deliveries faced (22 overs/132 balls). Interestingly, Bumrah also holds the record for the highest partnership at this venue with Mohammad Shami during the 2021 Test, where they amassed 89 runs off 120 balls.

Historic 2021 Test Match

In the 2021 Test at Lord's, Bumrah and Shami played a crucial role, scoring 89 runs for the ninth wicket, which significantly boosted India's second innings lead from 182 to 271. Later, in a remarkable comeback, captain Virat Kohli humorously instructed his bowlers to make England's innings feel like '60 overs of hell,' leading to England's collapse at 120 runs in just 51.5 overs, securing a 151-run victory for India. Bumrah took three wickets in the second innings after not claiming any in the first, while Mohammed Siraj excelled with eight wickets across both innings.

Jadeja's Steadfastness

Ravindra Jadeja showcased his batting skills once again, scoring the highest runs for the Indian team with a near half-century. Following the dismissal of Nitish Kumar Reddy for just 13 runs, only two players remained at the crease, the team's frontline pacers, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj. Jadeja remained focused, forming a 37-run partnership with Bumrah over 22 overs. Bumrah, who scored 5 runs off 54 balls, eventually fell to a pull shot attempt, with Ben Stokes taking the catch for England.
