  1. “Jasprit Bumrah is a strike bowler”- Zaheer Khan praises Indian speedster Former Indian speedster Zaheer Khan praised Jasprit Bumrah for his stunning show with the ball in the first innings of the first Test against England. Bumrah registered the figures of 4-46 as India bowled the hosts out for just 183.

And Zaheer Khan said that India should use Bumrah as only a wicket-taking option. While speaking to Cricbuzz, Zaheer Khan explained how a good start can help. He said: “Jasprit Bumrah ticked the box of an opening bowler by picking a wicket in the first over. Bumrah is a strike bowlerso you shouldn’t think about his economy rate. If he picks wickets, then the team will have a huge advantage in it. The way he approached his bowling has been sensational.” Zaheer Khan, however, was satisfied with the way Jasprit Bumrah picked up Jos Buttler’s wicket for a duck. Zaheer added: “Buttler’s wicket was a crucial element because he is a dangerous batsman who scores runs at a quick pace. So it was an important phase in which Bumrah took his wicket.” The veteran was also impressed by the way Jasprit Bumrah used his strength - yorkers at the end of the England’s innings. While India has faced problems earlier while dismissing the opposition’s tail, Bumrah did for his team this time. “Bumrah’s yorkers ensured that the lower order didn’t contribute too many runs. Sam Curran was looking in a good mood and was looking to keep the strike. But the wickets ensured that the innings didn’t go on for a longer time and ended it brilliantly,” Zaheer Khan concluded.
