Jasprit Bumrah was easily the number one bowler of this series. Australian former captain kept praising him during the series. He also said that Bumrah will be the number one bowler in all three formats in few months time and Bumrah deserved all such accolades as he bowled his heart out during the series.

Now, Lets talk about the special slow ball. It was during the third day of the MCG Test. There was not much happening on the pitch and it was almost time for lunch. Australia were three wickets down and Shaun Marsh was facing the last over before lunch and then from nowhere, Bumrah delivered a slower ball low full toss and Marsh took ages to pick it and missed it completely.

It crashed the pads and the umpire gave him out. Since that, there was no looking back for Bumrah as he completed the innings with six wickets. He won the man of the match award for his nine wickets in that match and India won the test. Later, he reveled that Rohit Sharma gave him the idea to bowl that delivery.
