India National Cricket Team pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah castled the England National Cricket Team speedster Jofra Archer with a stunning delivery on Day 2 of the Lord's Test match.
Jasprit Bumrah completed his five-wicket haul by dismissing the England National Cricket Team pacer in the third Test match and rewrote the history books.
Jasprit Bumrah bags sensational 5-wicket haul
Bumrah returned to the India playing XI at Lord's in London after skipping the previous Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham. He bowled exceptionally well on Day 1 but only managed to get one wicket of Harry Brook.
However, Bumrah was rewarded perfectly for his brilliant bowling on Day 2 as he managed to complete a 5-fer. He dismissed Ben Stokes, Joe Root, and Chris Woakes in quick succession with terrific deliveries to reduce the Three Lions to 271/7.
After that, he bagged his fifth wicket by dismissing Jofra Archer in the 110th over. Bumrah bowled a length delivery to Archer that wobbled in sharply to rattle the stumps of the English pacer, who looked devastated after getting out for 4.

Jasprit Bumrah surpasses Kapil Dev, equals Wasim Akram in elite lists
Taking a five-wicket haul helped Bumrah place his name on the honours board at Lord's, and this was his fourth Test 5-fer in England.
Overall, he became the 15th Indian to take a 5-wicket haul at Lord's after Mohammad Nissar, Amar Singh, Lala Amarnath, Vinoo Mankad, Ramakant Desai, BS Chandrasekhar, Bishan Singh Bedi, Kapil Dev, Chetan Sharma, Venkatesh Prasad, RP Singh, Praveen Kumar, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Ishant Sharma.
Also, Bumrah broke Kapil Dev's all-time record for most five-wicket hauls by an Indian in away Tests by taking his tally to 13. He also equalled Wasim Akram in the list of the most five-wicket hauls by an Asian bowler in SENA countries.
Most 5+ wicket hauls in away Tests by an Indian:
13- Jasprit Bumrah
12 - Kapil Dev
10 - Anil Kumble
9 - Ishant Sharma
Most 5+ wicket haul for an Asian bowler in SENA countries:
11* - Jasprit Bumrah (IND)
11 - Wasim Akram (PAK)
10 - Muttiah Muralitharan (SL)
8 - Imran Khan (PAK)
Meanwhile, the former England National Cricket Team skipper Nasser Hussain lauded Jasprit Bumrah for taking big wickets for his team by dismissing good players. He said:
"He was rested in the last game, he wants to play at Lord's, he wants to be on that Honours Board. That was a jaffa, he gets good players out, simple as that. He has got Joe Root out 11 times, Harry Brook yesterday, Ben Stokes first up today."
Earlier, Nasser Hussain crictised India for asking for a ball change even when magician Bumrah was looking unplayable. He said:
"Bumrah was unplayable in the first hour and had a Dukes ball that was doing something. I looked up from my laptop at the back of the comms box and went 'they are changing the ball?!' Why would you change a ball that is doing something? The magician Bumrah is doing something with it and in that box you have no knowledge of what the balls will do and you take that one.
"Then they find out that one is doing anything and get upset. Why take the gamble? I thought that was a bizarre thing to do. When you have got something, stick with it! They didn't."
