Jasprit Bumrah strikes early with a fatal delivery to Zak Crawley
England had just begun to respond to India’s terrifying first innings total of 471 when Bumra, steaming with a new ball, delivered an absolute peach to dismiss Crory for just four runs. After playing three careful dotballs, Crawley managed to find the boundary with a soft outer edge that sprints through the slip cordon. However, the resignation was short-lived. On the fifth delivery of the over, Bumura unleashed a lengthy ball with the first corners on Crawley’s pad.
Crawley committed early, hoping to get it to the side of the leg. However, the ball took the outer edge of the bat, as if programmed with slow intelligence, and took the ricocchet from the thigh pads on the back, straight enough to fly directly into the first slip. Crawley was completely caught off guard, stuck in the fold, and there was no answer to the sharp deviation from the seam.
With this latest firing, the statistical evidence behind Bumra’s control over Crawley continues to build up. In 14 Test innings where the two faced off, Crawley was rejected by Bumra in five times. This highlights the psychological and technical edge that Indian payers enjoy in this head-to-head contest. Crawley’s return against Bumrah is at best modest, averaging 24.40 with 122 runs from 233 balls, indicating that he not only falls frequently to Bumrah, but also struggles to score freely. In England alone, Crawley faces Bumrah in five innings and has already fallen four times to him. The numbers get even worse here. Only 33 deliveries run 56 deliveries, an average of 8.25.
