After India’s victory in the Cape Town Test, Aakash Chopra praised Jasprit Bumrah and asserted that the Indian pacer never loses his cool.
In the second Test match against South Africa in Cape Town, Bumrah displayed his remarkable fast bowling abilities with a performance that defined the game. One of the fastest Test victories in history, India’s seven-wicket victory was made possible in large part by the pacer’s six-wicket second-inning haul.
With his 6/61 stats, he not only destroyed the South African batting lineup but also set a low bar for India to meet, which they accomplished in only 1.5 days.
Bumrah took home the title of “Player of the Series” for his efforts, taking 12 wickets in the two games. Following India’s defeat in the opening Test, he made a crucial contribution to tie the series at one. With the caption “Special day, special match,” Bumrah’s Instagram photo conveyed his happiness and highlighted the win’s personal significance at the location of his Test cricket debut.
In a video posted to his YouTube account, Chopra described Bumrah as a fantastic bowler who demonstrated his value to the team during the second innings. The former cricket player believes that once Bumrah’s deliveries start to vary a little, he becomes unplayable.
“Bumrah Jasprit is a terrific bowler. It seems as though something went wrong. How could it be that Jasprit Bumrah did nothing when a South African television series ended?”
“He remains warm. He is a powerful man. Bumrah stated that he is there as well if Siraj claimed six wickets in the opening innings. Bumrah is unplayable when his ball starts to go left and right or up and down, according to Chopra.
In Cape Town, India has broken the jinx: Aakash Chopra
India’s victory in Cape Town marked their first time playing at the Newland Cricket Ground, and Chopra was relieved to see the squad break their curse. The ex-cricketer further asserted that the win occurred on a hazardous course.
“India has prevailed. The jinx is broken by us. In Cape Town, we’ve prevailed. Who said we couldn’t prevail? We had not won before, but we have now, and ironically, we did it on an extremely poor pitch.”
