Indian star pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been a household name for Team India over the years and he showed exactly why he is one of the best bowlers in international cricket. Bumrah’s dismissal of England batter Ollie Pope has put all fans in awe of him. With India posting a 396-run total in the 1st innings courtesy of a Yashasvi Jaiswal double century, Bumrah carried the Indian team forward with the ball.
The yorker specialist bowled a toe crushing delivery to Pope who couldn’t judge it and saw his stumps being uprooted from the ground. The delivery was greeted with a loud cheer from the crowd as well.
The fans stormed to their social media channels and reacted on the special delivery, referring to it as the ‘Yorker of the year’ too.

Jasprit Bumrah has been a consistent performer for Team India in the Test series, having picked up 6 scalps in the 1st Test defeat against England.
He was the only pacer in the 2nd Test who was successful on the day with spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Azar Patel taking a wicket each before tea on Day 2.
