BOOM! Best of Bumrah vs England

By Mumbai Indians

IPL संपला, now it's time for another test – Test cricket!
As India gears up for a high-voltage tour of England, one name that’s already giving the English batters sleepless nights is Jasprit Bumrah. The man has 60 wickets against England at an average of just 22.16.

Let’s rewind the tape and revisit Bumrah’s five best spells against England – performances that weren’t just good, they were 𝙮𝙖𝙖𝙙𝙜𝙖𝙖𝙧. 💙👇

1️⃣ 6/45 at Vizag – Batters shocked, BOOM rocked 💥

In Vizag 2024, Bumrah bent the ball and bent minds. That toe-crushing yorker to Ollie Pope? Insane 🤯
Even Ben Stokes threw up his hands and asked: 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵?

2️⃣ 5/64 at Nottingham – Top-order takedown, BOOM-style ✅

Start 🔥, finish hotter 🔥🔥🔥-  that’s exactly what Bumrah did in this 2021 classic.
The top order was dismantled:
Sibley ✅

Crawley ✅

Root ✅
With 9 wickets in the match, he was unplayable across both innings.

3️⃣ 5/85 at Nottingham – First English Test, First English 5-fer 🔥

2018. Bumrah’s first Test in England. And he arrived like a storm.
A 5-wicket haul, including some absolute screamers, helped India clinch a thumping 203-run win.
And the best part? That celebration after each wicket – arms wide open, energy at 💯

4️⃣ 4/46 at Nottingham – Blockbuster Opening 2021 🇮🇳🔥

Start of the 2021 tour, and Bumrah was in no mood to ease in.
In the first innings, he picked up 4/46. That spell wasn’t flashy – it was just pure rhythm and ruthlessness.

Par yeh toh sirf trailer tha, picture baaki thi. 🎞️

5️⃣ 3/33 at Lord’s – Bigger the match, better the BOOM 💣

If there's a quote that defines this match, it’s: “𝘍𝘰𝘳 60 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭.”
That was India’s plan — and Bumrah was the enforcer.
He got Joe Root, the danger man, and set the tone for a famous win 🎯

Yorkers, seamers, screamers – we’ve seen it all.
