Test Headingley: From Tentulkar & Co. to Bumrah & Co.? The returns from the atmosphere of the 90s of India | Cricket news

Timesofindia.com in Leeds: A bullet in his right hand and his sweater resting on his left, Jasprit Bumrah had his eyes locked up on the giant screen, which showed the replay of his fifth window. No bowler wants to miss the opportunity to see the ball crashing in the woodwork, and Bumrah admired the dismissal before recognizing the standing ovation of a crowded headingley. A slight increase in the ball and the Indian spearhead entered the locker room after finishing its 14th transport at five counters during tests.For 24.4 Overs, Bumrah fought a lonely battle in Headingley. His colleagues who have dropped him, Fielders dropped him, but he continued to take the ball after the ball after. He buried his face in his cap when a catch fell from his bowling alley and had trouble opening his eyes after it reproduced, but he kept the composure, glued to work, continued to run hard and finished with a magnificent five.He would create pressure only to see a bowl Prasidh Krishna or Mohammed Siraj Bowl of the other ends. England continued to check because they knew that there was only one Bumrah in the Indian XI, and he could do little. The state of the current Indian bowling alley can draw parallels with the Indian striker of the 90s – a show to man. If it was Sachin Tendulkar against the opposition, it is Bumrah against the opposition now.Krishna chose three and Siraj broke out two, but together they conceded 250 points in 47 overs. More than the races conceded, it was the way they pulverized the ball on the spot during the crucial junctions of the game. Yes, Siraj looked good when the ball lost day on day 2, but looked completely distraught on day 3.Regarding Krishna, he was held at the ball ploy with the dukes of the Oldish and obtained the awards, but when he made an error with his lines, he was sent. The confidence of the management of the Indian team in Shardul Thakur seemed low because the versatile bounded only six overs – three each day – out of the 100.4 Overs sent by the Indian quisors.
The script has this familiar feeling because it took place many times during the Border Gavaskar (BGT) trophy in Australia. Siraj and Krishna both played and traveled with the side enough to do the work of the other end. Yes, the approach of England and the jazz bazball are there, but the lines and lengths are inexplicable at this level. India was very ordinary with the second new ball and allowed the lower order of the opposition to add 114 points in 20.4 Overs before Bumrah was summoned before the break to redo its magic.He did not disappoint and chose two quick succession counters, but it was the other two sailors (because they never went to the third) who could not create an impact, even in conditions – covered and windy – which were ideal for rapids. Bumrah carried the load during the first outing of the Leeds test, but he will not be there forever – certainly not for more than three tests in the series.
Which are someone’s assumptions at the moment, but India must start preparing for life without Bumrah and prepare for it now. The management of the new ball will be a serious concern, and it is important that the experienced pro Siraj puts his hand and goes up. Siraj is no stranger to the bowling alley with the dukes, and Krishna had enough travel experience with the team and playing with one side.Bumrah continues to eat, sleep, pick up counters and repeat, and it is time that others have the same routine in their heads.
