Indian pace sensation Jasprit Bumrah has etched his name in cricket history by claiming his 200th Test wicket with Travis Head during the India VS Australia BGT 2024-25 edition, cementing his position as one of the most formidable fast bowlers of his generation. Achieving this milestone in just 44 Test matches, Bumrah has displayed remarkable consistency and skill throughout his career spanning from 2018 to 2024. The most Test wickets record is registered in the name of Muthiah Muralidaran with 800 wickets. For India Anil Kumble stands tall with 619 wickets.
With his unique bowling action and ability to generate pace and movement, Bumrah has terrorized batsmen across all conditions. His remarkable average of over two wickets per innings and 12 five-wicket hauls demonstrate his match-winning capabilities. What makes his achievement even more special is the fact that he has reached this landmark faster than many legendary Indian pacers before him.
Beyond the numbers, Bumrah’s impact on Indian cricket has been transformative. He has spearheaded India’s pace attack, helping the team secure historic victories overseas. His ability to reverse swing the old ball and deliver pinpoint yorkers has made him a captain’s go-to bowler in crucial situations.
