India vs. Australia 4th Test - Jasprit Bumrah Keeps His Perfection Going, Australia Further Cement Their Dominance
Jasprit Bumrah Keeps His Perfection Going, Australia Further Cement Their Dominance
The cricket of the day – the fourth day of the fourth Test between India and Australia – was a bat and ball cracker. Jasprit Bumrah’s splendid performance was neutralized, and in some measure, Australia ensured that they made it even further advanced and made the final day in the series a real tough call.
Bumrah Crosses the 200 Wickets Mark in Test Cricket
Pacer, Jasprit Bumrah of India, shifted a gear to a higher wicket-taking ranking, celebrating his 200th Test wicket. His fiery spell proved to be impeccable in length, awkward bounce, and late movement, which put the Australian batsmen under pressure for most of the day. Bumrah had again proved to be very clever in finding the right channel and creating wickets.
Australia's Gritty Resistance
Nevertheless, Australian cricketers proved most spirited, responding to Bumrah’s bowling masterclass. Marnus Labuschagne and Alex Carey stuck it out and put their toes down, much to the irritation of the Indian bowlers. The lower-order batsmen of Australians, including Nathan Lyon and Scott Boland, also came to bat and that too put up a very interesting performance, not only worrying the Indians but also coming up with some crucial runs which were a must for the team.
A Crucial Final Day
Australia is poised for a ‘great catch up’ as the final day sees one of the more intense matches. India will have to come up with a batting show of a lifetime and get the runs needed to avoid a series loss. Australia, on the other cup, will be keen on building on its advantage and earning the much-needed win in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Read on for a blast to the finish.
I expect quite a dramatic final day of the fourth Test. Keep following the live match and check out how one of the giants of cricket will triumph over the other.
