 Watch: On this day a year ago, Jasprit Bumrah crushed Stuart Broad for 35 runs in one over

Jasprit Bumrah

The prominent Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who is widely recognized for his lightning-fast bowling talents, crushed Stuart Broad of England on July 2, 2022, collecting 35 runs in a single over. After the frustration of the English bowlers at Edgbaston against the likes of Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant’s magnificent runs, Broad merely proceeded to deliver bouncers to Bumrah in the final Test between India and England. Regrettably, for Broad, he continued to bowl short, and the 29-year-old continued to keep pulling and snagging as he smashed four fours and two sixes, including one that was a no-ball, as well as five wides.

Moreover, as the tenth player in the batting order, the right-arm pacer ended unbeaten on 31 off 16 with four fours and two sixes. Following Rishabh Pant’s (146) and Ravindra Jadeja’s (104) centuries, India was bundled out for 416 in 84.5 overs. Notably, during the 2007 ICC World T20I Tournament in South Africa, Broad gave up a total of 36 runs to India in one over as Yuvraj Singh attacked an unprecedented six sixes off his delivery.

India lost this match as the home side successfully chased down 378 runs in the final innings

Considering India’s lower-order comeback over England, which enabled the visitors to rack up 416 runs in the first innings, the visitors lost this match as the home side successfully chased down 378 runs in the final innings. The English side came out blazing and chased down an enormous target in 76.4 overs, showing their batters, notably Jonny Bairstow, to be far too strong for the Indian team.

Notably, England chased 378, and Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow produced a remarkable stand, collecting 142 and 114 runs, respectively, and guiding the England squad to a decisive victory. Rishabh Pant, the wicketkeeper batter who struck 146 and 57 in his two innings, was the nation’s sole light of optimism.
