Could have dismissed him 6-7 times in 12 balls… Which Australian batsman is Jasprit Bumrah targeting?

Melbourne. There is a lot of discussion about one player in the Border Gavaskar Trophy against the Indian team. Australia’s 19-year-old new batsman Sam Constas made a explosive start on his Test debut. Jasprit Bumrah hit two sixes in his explosive spell. India’s champion fast bowler said on Saturday that he never felt that he was away from the wicket. Bumrah said that it was an interesting match against Constas on the first day of the fourth Test. He said that he could have dismissed him six-seven times in the first two overs.

In the first innings of the Melbourne Test, Costas scored 62 runs in 65 balls and also hit two sixes off Bumrah. For the first time in three years in Test cricket, a batsman hit a six off Bumrah. Bumrah told Channel 7, “I don’t see things that way. I am bowling well and the results are in my favor but I have bowled better at different places. This is what happens in cricket that sometimes you get wickets but sometimes you don’t get wickets even after bowling well. Everything works equally. I have played T20 cricket for more than 12 years and have a lot of experience in it.

Bumrah, who has taken 24 wickets so far this year in the Border Gavaskar Trophy, said, “Interesting batsman (Costance). I didn’t feel that I was away from the wicket. Initially I thought I could get him out six-seven times in the first two overs, but that’s what happens in cricket. Many times you get a wicket and when you don’t, you criticize the same person. I like to face new challenges.

Bumrah, who made his debut in ODI cricket in Australia, said that he has always performed best here. He said, “I have always performed best in Australia. I played Test here for the first time in 2018 and made my ODI debut in 2016. There are a lot of challenges here because the wickets are flat and the Kookaburra helps with the new ball but not later. Therefore your accuracy is checked. The weather tests your fitness and patience. Once you overcome these challenges, you become a better cricketer.
