Ace India pacer Jasprit Bumrah came up with the best rescuing act when the side needed the most in the T20 World Cup final against South Africa. From bowling brilliantly in the powerplay to acing it in the death overs, Boom Boom was instrumental in denting the chances of the Proteas before the Men in Blue sealed a well deserved victory.
Jasprit Bumrah delivers T20 World Cup for India
The speedster provided the perfect start for India, castling opener Reeza Hendricks in his very first over. While it looked like India were losing control in the match, Bumrah did what he was best at in the death overs.
Such was Bumrah’s brilliance that the win probability for South Africa, which was 96.24% right before his third over in the 16th over., crashed just after those six balls and so did South Africa’s World Cup dreams. Bumrah finished with figures of 2/18 from his four overs at an economy rate of 4.50.
