1st Test: I Was Trying To Focus On What Worked For Me, Says Bumrah On Fifer Against England
Tendulkar Trophy Test: India’s fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah said his magnificent 5-83 against England in the ongoing first Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Headingley was down to him focusing on what worked well for him after assessing conditions.
Bumrah was India's standout bowler on day three’s play as his figures of 5-83 in 24.4 overs- his 14th five-wicket haul in Tests - ensured India got a narrow six-run lead after bowling out England for 465 in their first innings. Bumrah, who picked his third five-wicket haul in England, has also equalled the legendary Kapil Dev for the most fifers for India in away Tests (12).
"I felt good in the first innings. Sometimes the downward slope helps and the wind was also decent, so that gives you a push. Sometimes when you see the dukes ball you can try to bowl banana swing and magic balls, but I was trying to focus on what worked for me," said Bumrah on Sky Sports’ broadcast ahead of day four’s play on Monday.
