We are witnessing greatness! Twitter reacts to Jasprit Bumrah's sensational 5-wicket haul vs England

Jasprit Bumrah has been breathing fire ever since he was brought into the attack by skipper Rohit Sharma in order to bring India back into the game after England dominated the first session throughout. The 30-year-old speedster has come out on the pitch with all guns blazing and has completed his 10th Test 5-wicket haul, which he completed after taking the wicket of Tom Hartley.

Jasprit Bumrah has proved Rohit’s decision to be correct once again, just like he did in the 3rd innings at Hyderabad but his 2nd inning spell in Vizag is turning out to be even more special. When the 2nd innings began, the Indian spinners brought back life into the Indian dug out following a “Bazball” kind of start given by Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley.

The duo completed 50 runs in no matter of time before Kuldeep Yadav removed Duckett 21 and a few overs later, Crawley received his marching orders as well after a quickfire 76 off 78 balls by Axar Patel. It was then that Bumrah joined the party and broke the spine of England’s batting order.

He single handedly stepped over the English middle order. His first wicket of the day came in the form of England’s most experienced batter in Indian conditions, Joe Root for just 5 runs. Number 3 batter and 1st Test’s man of the match Ollie Pope became subject to a lethal, ruthless and deadly yorker to get dismissed for 23 runs.

One will fall short of finding enough adjectives to describe what Jasprit Bumrah was on for today. His wicket-taking spree didn’t stop with Pope. Up next on his radar was Johnny Bairstow who got out in an action replay of Joe Root after another low score of 25.

Then England skipper Ben Stokes failed to pick up a length ball that remained low after pitching and went straight into the stumps. Stokes’ wicket gave India another breather as he was England’s last batter out there. Jasprit Bumrah completed his 10th 5-wicket haul by scalping off-spinner Tom Hartley and then cleaned the English innings with a 6-wicket haul by claiming the last wicket of James Anderson.

India have already started with their 3rd innings after England got bowled out for 253. Upon his fiery spell, here are some of the best fan reactions:

Ollie Pope's innings is the difference between India and England in the 1st test. This test it would be Bumrah's spell for sure. India will win this test comfortably. #INDvENG #INDvsENGTest
