India vs Australia seems to bring out the best out of all players – be it the cricket or even the sledging/trolling in the heat of the moment. After being taken to the cleaners by Sam Konstas in the first innings, Jasprit Bumrah responded with an unplayable jaffa before sending off the Aussie.
After a Nitish Kumar Reddy century helped India stay in the Boxing Day Test at the MCG, Australia walked into bat with a 105 run lead. With the way Konstas attacked Bumrah in the first innings, all eyes were on the contest to see how Bumrah would respond. And the duo did not disappoint.
On the third ball of the seventh over, the Indian pacer bowled a 139.7kmph delivery at the Aussie teenager. The ball, that appeared to be a back of a length delivery, seamed in significantly after pitching and found its way through the gate before clipping the top of off stump. As good as the ball was, the celebration was even better – the usually calm Bumrah tried to get the crowd to make some noise much like Konstas had done during the first innings.
Twitter did not miss this and credited Bumrah for both the wicket and the celebration.
