Australia vs India 2018/19: 5 best players of the series

#2 Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah was the best bowler of the series

Jasprit Bumrah is one of the star performers of the series. His impact in the series can be imagined by the fact that he has moved from 28th to 12th in the ICC Test bowlers ranking. His performance in Australia has made him be considered as one of the best in the world.

After making his Test debut in South Africa, Bumrah has never looked back. He is now the only Asian bowler to pick up a five-fer in South Africa, England and Australia. With his unusual action and short run-up, he has surprised the world with his heroics in Test cricket.

Since the first Test match at Adelaide Bumrah had started to dominate the Australian batting line-up. He was the most laboured bowler for India bowling the most number of overs in the series. Bumrah is definitely one of the main reason for India's series win in Australia.

Jasprit Bumrah finished his first Test series in Australia as the highest wicket-taker. He picked up 21 wickets in the series at an average of 17.00. He had 6 wickets to his name at Melbourne and was named the man of the match for his match figure of 9/86.
