Lucknow: Jasprit Bumrah’s opening spell and Mohammad Shami’s wicket-taking were crucial as India thrashed reigning champions England for their sixth straight win in the World Cup. When David Malan and Jonny Bairstow combined to take England to 30 runs on the opening wicket, Bumpa struck a double blow by dropping Malan and Joe Root in successive balls. It was Bumrah who ended the England innings by returning David Willey with a beautiful yorker at the tail end.
Bumrak, who was away from cricket for a year due to injury, missed last year’s T20 World Cup, World Test Championship final, India-Australia Test series, IPL and Asia Cup. At the time of his injury, Bumrah was only playing in the IPL and there were rumors that he would be injured by the time he started playing for India.

Speaking to Sky Sports following the match once morest England, Bumrah told Sky Sports that he had heard all the criticism and taunts he had received during his retirement from cricket and was happy to be back.
My wife Sanjana Ganesan is a television sports anchor. That’s why I heard high criticism regarding my career and arguments that I’m not going to come back. That’s okay. Now that it’s back, that’s what makes me so happy. It wasn’t until I came back that I realized how much I love this game. I am not trying to cut anything. Bumrah said that he is trying to enjoy every match.
