Captain Bumrah was overjoyed after winning the first match, opened his heart in praise of these 3 players
Indian Team: The Indian team defeated Australia by 295 runs in the first test match. With this the team has taken a 1-0 lead in the series. The Indian team has defeated Australia at a time when Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill were not playing. Jasprit Bumrah, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli performed strongly for the team. While Virat and Jaiswal scored centuries, Bumrah took 8 wickets in the match. It is because of these players that Team India has been successful in winning the match. Whereas debutants Nitish Kumar Reddy and Harshit Rana played well in the first Test match of their career.
Praised Harshit and Nitish
Captain Jasprit Bumrah was impressed by the fearless attitude and maturity of debutants Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy. Bumrah said that the biggest positive thing when he made his debut was that he was not nervous at all. It didn’t seem like he was playing for the first time in Australia or it was his first match. Rana got the crucial wicket of Travis Head with a brilliant ball in the first innings and did not shy away from commenting on the experienced Mitchell Starc even though both played together for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024. Apart from this, Reddy also contributed 41 and 38 runs in both the innings.
Yashasvi Jaiswal played an inning of 161 runs
Similarly, Yashasvi Jaiswal, playing his first Test in Australia, played an inning of 161 runs and played an important role in the team’s victory. Bumrah said that this is the best innings of Jaiswal’s career so far. If I have to choose the best player of the match then I will choose Jaiswal. I think this is his best test innings so far because you know he plays aggressively. But in the second innings, he left a lot of balls, took his time and batted back in the crease. This gives a lot of confidence.
Jasprit Bumrah said that when circumstances are difficult, I think about how I can contribute. This happens even when I’m not leading the team. In such a situation, whenever a difficult situation arises, I try to find an answer to it. I am comfortable putting myself in difficult situations.
