Jasprit Bumrah (Source: X)
Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Travis Head for the second time in the fourth Test match against Australia at the MCG. With this wicket, Bumrah reached 200 wickets in Test cricket. In the same over, Bumrah dismissed Mitchell Marsh, who got out on a duck. The pacer wreaked havoc on the Australian batters as he went on to claim his fourth wicket of the innings by dismissing Alex Carey, who was batting on two runs.
Bumrah was just brilliant in his spell, keeping the pressure on the Australian batting attack. Only Marnus Labuschagne is the last batter left for the team who is putting in efforts to hold the innings from one end while the wickets keep tumbling from the other. Mohammed Siraj extended perfect support to Bumrah from the other end, taking two wickets. He sent back the dangerous Steven Smith who scored a century in the previous game.

As we write, Australia have taken a lead of 200 runs, making it difficult for India to win the game. Chasing anything above 250-300 runs wouldn't be possible for India, considering the batters' form.

Travis Head scores one run on his birthday
It was not a very 'Happy Birthday' for Travis Head as he was dismissed on just one run in the second innings. Well, Jasprit Bumrah's magic didn't let the batter score more than one run in the fourth Test match. In the first innings, Head was dismissed on a duck by Bumrah, who later celebrated with his usual simple celebration. Head wouldn't be happy with the way he's been dismissed in the game.
Marnus Labuschagne is playing brilliantly, trying his best to help Australia get to a good total on the board. Now, everything will depend on the Indian batters to put in effort and win the game.
