India defeated England by 10 wickets in the opener of a three-match ODI series on Tuesday, with Jasprit Bumrah taking 6 for 19.
On Tuesday, Jasprit Bumrah’s match-winning stats of 6 for 19 wreaked havoc on England. Bumrah’s six-wicket haul in the first ODI between India and England at London’s Kennington Oval was the first by an Indian pacer in an ODI in England. The bowler had his best ODI numbers in this outing as well. Bumrah received a lot of praise after his impressive bowling performance helped India defeat England by 10 wickets and restrict them to 110 runs. A former England captain, Michael Vaughan described Bumrah as “the best bowler across forms” following the match.
“In all formats, he (Jasprit Bumrah) is without a doubt the top bowler by a wide margin. You could include bowlers like Shaheen Shah Afridi and Trent Boult in this category. Still, Jasprit Bumrah, with his pace, skill, wobble seam, swing, yorkers, and slower balls dipped in the air, appears to be improving at an exponential rate “said Vaughan after the first one-day international between India and England.
“There are just a few batsmen who can actually beat Jasprit Bumrah in T20, 50-over, and Test cricket, despite the fact that they have seen him plenty over the last few years… I believe he is light years ahead of the competition “Vaughan chimed in.
76 runs from 58 balls from Rohit Sharma followed Bumrah’s impressive performance. Six fours and five sixes punctuated his inning. To help India win the first one-day international against England by 10 wickets, Rohit and Shikhar Dhawan (32 not out) put on an unbroken partnership of 114 runs.
