Bas Ab, Nahi Lag Raha Zor’: Jasprit Bumrah’s Exhausted Reply to Rohit Sharma’s Request for ‘One More Over’”

Bas Ab, Nahi Lag Raha Zor’: India National Cricket Team pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been working as a machine in the ongoing fourth Test against the Australia National Cricket Team. The Boxing-day Test between the teams is taking place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.

In the ongoing second innings, Bumrah has bowled 24 overs and has taken 4 wickets. In the first innings, the vice-captain of the India National Cricket Team bowled 28.4 overs, which makes around 50 overs in the game, and it is expected that the pacer might bowl a few more overs on day 5.

However, in the previous innings, Jasprit Bumrah was the standout bowler for India in the Boxing Day Test against Australia, taking a crucial 5/57 to help bowl Australia out for 234. His efforts were vital as Australia, starting the day at 228/9 with a 333-run lead, continued to frustrate India with a gritty 57-run partnership between Nathan Lyon and Scott Boland.

In a video circulating online of Day 4, India's star performer is seen telling captain Rohit Sharma that he is done for the day. On the stump mic, Rohit is heard asking “Ek aur over dalega kya.”

After bowling eight consecutive overs, Bumrah can be heard telling Rohit Sharma: “Bas ab nahi lag raha zor (Enough, can’t exert myself any more)".

In the absence of Mohammed Shami, who has failed to convince the BCCI of his fitness, and Mohammed Siraj's poor run of form, Bumrah has become Rohit Sharma's go-to man in the series. In the second innings in Melbourne, where he picked up his third five-wicket haul in the contest, Bumrah bowled 24.4 overs and a total of 53.2 overs in the match, the most he has bowled in a single Test in his career.

Eventually, Bumrah completed a stunning five-wicket haul by removing Nathan Lyon on Day 5. This was his third five-wicket haul for India in this series. He has already picked up 30 wickets from just eight innings, and with one more Test left, he is guaranteed to shine bright in that game, too.

At the time of writing, India is 93/3, and Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant are out in the middle.
