IND vs AUS T20 Schedule: Bumrah Nearing Major Milestone; Will Join Arshdeep in Exclusive Club

IND vs AUS T20 Schedule: Bumrah Nears Major Milestone

Team India, led by Suryakumar Yadav, leveled the series on November 2, making it 1-1. After the first T20I was washed out and Australia won the second match, the series remains open with two games left to play.

Bumrah Approaching 100 Wickets

India’s premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah is closing in on a significant achievement. With 98 wickets, he stands joint-second among Indian bowlers alongside Hardik Pandya, who is sidelined due to injury. Arshdeep Singh tops the group with 104 wickets, being the only Indian in the 100-wicket club for T20 internationals.

If Bumrah takes two more wickets, he will join Arshdeep in this exclusive club.

Key Contributions from Bumrah and Arshdeep

Both bowlers were pivotal in India’s T20 World Cup victory. Since Rahul Dravid became coach, Arshdeep’s chances have been limited, yet he impressed with a standout performance of 3/35 in the third T20I.

“Hopefully we will see him in the playing XI in the last two games.”

Bumrah’s bowling has been economical with figures of 2/26 in the second match and 0/26 in the third, though he did not bowl in the rain-affected first game. His series economy rate stands at 6.5 runs per over.

Looking Ahead to the T20 World Cup

With the T20 World Cup three months away, the combination of Bumrah and Arshdeep could prove lethal, especially on home soil.

Author’s summary: Jasprit Bumrah is on the verge of joining Arshdeep Singh in the elite 100-wicket T20I club, reinforcing India’s strong bowling attack ahead of the T20 World Cup.
