On the final day of the Kanpur Test between India and Bangladesh, Jasprit Bumrah showcased his class yet again by producing a stunning delivery to dismiss Mehidy Hasan Miraz. The Bangladeshi batter was looking to build his innings but the star Indian pacer removed him to reduce the visitors 118/8.
Jasprit Bumrah’s brilliant delivery
In the 36th over of Bangladesh’s second innings, captain Rohit Sharma brought back Bumrah in search of a breakthrough, and Bumrah delivered immediately. In what was a near-identical dismissal to Mehidy Hasan’s first innings, Bumrah bowled a good-length delivery angled in that straightened after pitching. Mehidy, rooted to the crease, offered a tentative push with his bat, only to edge the ball. The edge flew to the right of wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, who made no mistake in collecting it cleanly.
The delivery, a classic Bumrah effort, once again highlighted the bowler’s precision and ability to execute under pressure. Bumrah’s inclusion in the attack for this over was a calculated move, as India looked to break through Bangladesh’s lower-order resistance, and his sharp bowling ensured India inched closer to victory.

India eyes victory as Bangladesh gets all out on a low score
As the final day of the Kanpur Test unfolds, India are in an excellent position to claim victory, as Bangladesh have been bundled out for 146, leaving India a target of just 96 runs. This outcome has left the Indian team in a strong position as they head into the final two sessions of play. The visitors struggled against a relentless Indian bowling attack, which capitalized on every opportunity and showcased excellent discipline throughout the innings.
Bangladesh’s batting woes were compounded by the quick loss of wickets, with India’s bowlers effectively executing their plans. As the last wicket fell, it became clear that the Indian bowlers had dominated the encounter, and the challenge for the Bangladeshi batsmen to set a competitive total fell short. Now, with their innings concluded, they are left to watch as India prepares to chase a relatively modest target.
