Jasprit Bumrah got his Test Cap in the year 2018 when India toured South Africa. The South Africans batted first in the Test match but were off to a rocky start as Bhuvneshwar Kumar's three wickets had reduced them to 12-3 inside five overs.

The pressure was mounting on the Proteas but then the experienced duo of AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis tried to rebuild the innings with a solid partnership.

They both stitched a 114-run partnership which was broken by the debutante Jasprit Bumrah when the Gujarati pacer knocked off the stumps of AB de Villiers and picked up his first ever Test wicket.

Bumrah was able to pick only one wicket in the first innings but he bettered his performance in the 2nd innings by scalping three wickets which even included the wicket of AB de Villiers.
