IND vs AUS: Jasprit Bumrah shook the record books, left Wasim Akram behind in front of his eyes

Cricket News Desk. As soon as he reached Australia, Jasprit Bumrah wreaked havoc with the ball. In the first Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy being played in Perth, Bumrah broke the back of Australia's top order on the first day. Batting first, the Indian batsmen did wonders in bowling despite failing. When the Australian team came out to bat after India's first innings was bundled out for 150 runs, no one would have imagined that the bowlers of the visiting team would create such a bad situation for the Kangaroo batsmen.

In response to India's 150 runs, Australia had scored 67 runs at the loss of 7 wickets on the scoreboard by the end of the first day's play. On the first day, Bumrah made 4 batsmen victims. After this, as soon as the second day's play started, Bumrah showed the way to the pavilion to Alex Carey and took 5 wickets for the 11th time in the Test. He has equaled Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma in terms of taking maximum 5 wickets in Tests.

Wasim Akram's record broken!
Not only this, Bumrah achieved the feat of taking 5 wickets in a Test innings for the 7th time in seven countries (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia). In this way, Bumrah equaled Kapil Dev's record of taking maximum 5 wickets in the Indian Army. While Bumran equaled Kapil Dev, he also broke the record of Pakistan's legendary fast bowler Wasim Akram. Bumrah took his 37th wicket on Australian soil in the form of Alex Carey. In this way, Bumrah has become the highest wicket taker bowler in Australia since 1990. He left Akram's tally of 36 wickets behind.
