4th Test: Brilliant Bumrah, Kenny Jadeja wow England as India win by 157 runs. Cricket News – Times of India

London: A Dangerous Jasprit Bumrah joined forces with a canny Ravindra Jadeja India took a 2-1 lead in the five-match series on Monday to beat England by 157 runs in the fourth Test.
The Indian bowling attack was without its two senior fast bowlers Ishant Sharma and Mohammed Shami, but was still powerful enough to bowl out England for 210 in 92.2 overs.
Achievement: | as it happened
The hosts were chasing a tough target of 368 runs.
Bumrah (22-9-27-2) and Jadeja (30-11-50-2) hit England so fast that a batsman Joe Root(36 off 78 balls) seemed stunned at the other end by the kind of distress his fellow batsmen had.

Perhaps this was the reason that the human origins of India Shardul ThakurThe (8-1-22-2) off-cutter was dragged back to the stumps by Root, signaling the end of the English resistance.
Umesh Yadav (18.2-2-60-3) completed formalities with the second new ball as India won two Test matches in the same series in England after a gap of 35 years.
Virat Kohli It was stated after the third Test that a win at Lord’s did not guarantee a win at Leeds and that a humble defeat at Leeds did not mean that the tables could not be turned at the Oval.

The captain’s thoughts were proved right by his team’s all-round performance – Rohit Sharma Showing a steely flair, Shardul Thakur does it all knowing that the possibilities may be far and few.
Umesh has shown that he is no less effective than a quartet of fast bowlers, the first choice of the team management.
As far as Jadeja is concerned, he replied on behalf of himself and Virat Kohli to all the pro-Ashwin supporters. He hit the rough outside the left-handed off-stump as his captain assessed the toss.

He started the slide to pay off Haseeb Hameed (63 off 193 balls) for his over-defensive strategy with the dismissal of a classic left-arm spinner.
Using the ruff outside the right-handed leg-stump, he landed on the spot as the opener advanced for a defensive stroke, but the ball passed just enough to escape the bat and hit the top of the off-stump.

It was then Bumrah’s turn to advance his quick reverse swinging delivery with a deadly mix of yorkers for Ollie Pope (2) and Jonny Bairstow (0) who could not stop his defense from breaking down.
Pope came at a pace that also ensured the fastest 100th Test wicket for India’s prolific all-format pacer in the last decade. But Bairstow’s delivery was even more special as it would have made a player like Waqar Younis proud.

It went into the air and dipped just in time for Bairstow to do a yorker and leave England.
In the same over, Bumrah bowled another dangerous yorker which Root managed to get out.
The great Shane Warne called it the best fast bowling spell during the English summer and that too on a flat deck.
Warne tweeted, “Salute to Jasprit Bumrah 9! That spell of 6.3.6.2 and a great spell of the summer so far. A class above any other fast bowler in this test match. Excellent,” Warne tweeted. .

If that wasn’t enough, Moeen Ali became a “walking wicket” as he trapped himself in the set plan with Jadeja again landing on the rough outside the left-handed off-stump.
The extra bounce meant it hit the shoulder of the blade and was caught at short leg by Suryakumar Yadav instead of Cheteshwar Pujara.
From 141 for two to 147 for six in a span of six overs. In that hour after lunch, England lost four wickets for 19 runs in 14 overs.
India certainly got into the driver’s seat by lunch with the first two wickets in hand and Hameed’s approach didn’t help England’s cause either.
Thakur, who was disappointing in the first innings, provided the breakthrough after a 100-run stand in the 41st over, the first in the fourth innings in 58 years against India.
Thakur bowled a fuller and he took the outside edge of Burns’ bat and went a shade away.
David Malan (5) looked solid in defense until Hameed wronged a single, tapped Jadeja’s delivery at short cover, where substitute fielder Mayank Agarwal picked up and threw in an action, allowing the visitors to Malan fell short of his ground for joy.
For Hameed, who is known as the Baby Boys after Geoffrey Boycott, he was not ready to send a loose half volley to the boundary as his bat hit only six boundaries.
The pressure on the scoreboard of his batting helped India strangle to eventually call off the game in the second session.
