On Saturday, Jasprit Bumrah caused chaos with the ball in his hands. In the current second Test match in Visakhapatnam, the right-arm pace spearhead rattled the England batting lineup with figures of 6 for 45 in 15.5 overs. It was a difficult day for the England batters against Bumrah, who was at the top of his game. Bumrah hardly made a mistake during the innings, whether it was with his toe-crushing yorkers or his swinging deliveries. He also achieved a historic first in Indian cricket during his incredible spell.

When it comes to games played and balls bowled, Bumrah became the fastest Indian pacer to reach 150 Test wickets. In his 34th game of a stellar career playing Test cricket, he set a record. In fewer than 35 matches, Bumrah became the first pacer in Indian cricket history to take 150 Test wickets. Bumrah finished the day with 152 Test wickets under his belt.

Bumrah made it to the incredible achievement in Test cricket after hitting 6781 balls. With 7661 balls, Umesh Yadav is currently in second place.Mohammed Shami and Kapil Dev, with 7755 and 8378 balls, respectively, are in second and fourth place.

The 30-year-old made history after he dismissed the English skipper Ben Stokes on day two of the second Test match on Saturday. In the second ball of the 50th over, Bumrah delivered a yorker and bowled out Stokes for 47 runs.

In England’s first inning, the vice-captain delivered a magical spell. He picked up six wickets and gifted only 45 runs.

On Saturday, Bumrah accomplished yet another milestone. In an Indian Test match, he replaced Kapil Dev by dismissing the opposition’s third, fourth, fifth, and sixth batters in a single innings. In an earlier match, Kapil Dev set a record in Ahmedabad, India, against the West Indies, with a breathtaking 9/83 spell.

In 2018, Bumrah played his first Test match against South Africa. After that, he participated in 64 Test innings over the course of 34 Tests, taking 152 wickets.
