Cricketer Faiz Fazal heaps praise on Jasprit Bumrah

Faiz Fazal, who made his debut the last time India won an ODI by 10 wickets—in 2016 v Zimbabwe—recalls how India pacer Jasprit excelled six years ago (4-22) just as he did with his 6-19 against England on Tuesday at The Oval

Rohit Sharma & Co outclassed England by 10 wickets in the first of three One-Day Internationals (ODI) at The Oval, London, on Tuesday. It was a rare triumph—only the fifth time India clinched an ODI keeping all 10 wickets intact. And the last time India did this in a 50-over game was over half-a-decade back, in 2016 when openers KL Rahul and Faiz Fazal guided India to victory against Zimbabwe at Harare.

Interestingly, pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who was the star of the show six years ago, did even better against the Englishmen on Tuesday. In Harare, Bumrah had taken 4-22 in what was only his fourth ODI as Zimbabwe were bowled out for 123. At The Oval, he ended up with an impressive 6-19 off just 7.2 overs as Jos Buttler’s outfit were dismissed for just 110.
