Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Ben Stokes and as soon as the ball hit the stumps, Ben Stokes shakes his head and dropped his bat in disappointment.
In the second Test cricket match that unfolded with intensity, Jasprit Bumrah delivered a spellbinding performance, ultimately dismissing the formidable Ben Stokes. The defining moment occurred when Bumrah’s precision sent the ball crashing into the stumps, leaving Stokes visibly disappointed.
As the ball hit the stumps, Stokes, known for his resilience at the crease, shook his head and dropped his bat in frustration. It was the quality of the delivery he had just faced – a delivery so well-executed that it left even a seasoned batsman like Stokes stunned.
Bumrah, who had already claimed six wickets in the innings, provided insights into the dismissal after the day 2’s play. He explained that Stokes had been carefully judging the ball for an extended period, anticipating its trajectory. However, the delivery deviated from Stokes’ predictions, making it virtually unplayable for the English all-rounder.
