It was not much long ago when Jasprit Bumrah made his Test debut for India against South Africa in January this year. Ever since, he has emerged as India's frontline seamer even in the red-ball format. He has accounted for most wickets this year in Tests for India. In such a short period of time, he has emerged as Kohli's go-to man.

Even in this Test series, he has made all the difference with the bowling. He continued the good work with his accurate and fiery spells. It was a treat to watch Bumrah bowl as he ripped through the Australian batting lineup. He registered his best Test figures of 6 for 33 in the first innings to help India gain a commanding lead of 292 runs.

The pick of the Indian bowlers so far in the series, Bumrah has 20 wickets to his name in the three Test matches.
