“Someone’s wife is calling … but I will not pick it up. I have left it in this way,” they replied before continuing, “Everyone Judge … I forgot the question. The professional game is the same.”
The most memorable Test match for me was … – Jasprit Bumrah
Jasprit Bumrah called the 2021 Lord’s Test one of the most memorable moments of his career. He did not take a wicket or score in the first innings, but played an important role with the bat in the second innings, adding an unbeaten stand of 89 runs with Mohammed Shami. Bumrah scored 34 runs while Shami added 56.
“I don’t think of all that. The most memorable Test match for me was in England last time. When Shami Bhai and I won the match with batting, I will remember those memories. It is a good thing to come to the Honors Board. When my son grows up, I can tell him that my name is on the Honors Board,” Bumrah shared.
