Team India’s young sensation Jasprit Bumrah took six wickets in the first innings of the second Test against the West Indies to record his career-best bowling figures.
Bumrah finished the innings with figures of 6-27.
The 25-year old had taken six wickets Day 2 of the Jamaica Test. He did not grab any wicket on the third day, but his spell was enough to hand the pacer his best bowling figures in Test cricket.
In the first innings, Bumrah had taken the wickets of John Campbell, Darren Bravo, Shamarh Brooks, Roston Chase, Jason Holder, and Kraigg Brathwaite.
He broke his previous best figures record of 6/33 against Australia in 2018.
Bumrah earlier claimed his first hat-trick in international cricket on the second day of the match.
While filing this story, Windies’ first innings folded for 117 runs and India decided not to enforce the follow-on.
