Jasprit Bumrah

Dont see bumrah bowling again in 2nd inn. his Test career is in doubt after another back injury. Hes 31 years old and it gets tougher to recover as you get old. hes one injury away from being career ending- see the likes of Bond, James Pattinson, Jofra Archer, Josh Hazlewood etc.. All examples were basically career ending. All four had stress fractures in the back. All were great bowlers yes, but limited longevity for all...

Hazlewood, even if he never plays another test has played 72 tests over a decade and taken 279 wickets. That puts him in the top 45 wicket takers of all time, ahead of Garner, Holding, Lindwall, Philander, Grimmett and a bunch of other bowlers who have had "complete" careers.

Best bowling series here since hadlee. Could've challenged him for top spot without the injury maybe.

I had commented that I want Bumrah to get 25 wickets in 5 tests @20.00 before the series.

Already got way more than what I bargained for!
