Bumrah on fire! Australia 3 down

November 22, 2024 13:39

Aus 19-3 (7 ovs) vs India 150 | Scorecard

Bumrah bowling in a good channel just on and around the off-stump to Labuschagne. The right-hander is squared up as the ball moves away, taking the thick edge but along the ground towards third slip where Rahul makes a good stop.

A confident appeal from Bumrah as Labuschagne is beaten by the inswinger but this time the impact looks high.

The last ball is beauty as it swings away and the right-hander playing inside the line is beaten again.

Khawaja releases the pressure as he pulls the short ball from Siraj over square leg for a four.

He does well to take a single off the last ball and retain strike against Bumrah for the next over.

Bumrah continues to torment the Aussie batters. This time the length ball swings away to beat the outside edge as the India captain makes the new ball count.

Bumrah is finally rewarded for some high quality bowling. From around the wicket he makes the ball to move away and this time Khawaja gets the edge and Kohli completes an easy catch this time.

Khawaja walks back for eight.

Bumrah on fire! He gets Steve Smith leg before wicket off the first ball he faces. The full delivery angles into Smith, who shuffles across but is beaten by the swing to be caught plumb in front.

Smith gone for a first-ball duck as Australia slip to 19/3.

Bumrah on a hat-trick! He goes for the full delivery as Travis Head misses the flick and struck on the pads but the ball is clearly going down.
