World No. 1 Test bowler Jasprit Bumrah is leading India’s bowling attack in the ongoing fourth Test against England at Old Trafford in Manchester. He opened his account by dismissing Jamie Smith for 9 runs from 19 balls on Friday (July 25) and then picked up Liam Dawson’s wicket as well. The wicket of Dawson in the morning session of the fourth day’s play helps Bumrah take his tally of wickets to 100 against England in international cricket.
The ongoing match in Manchester is Bumrah’s 29th game against the English team, and he now becomes the fourth Indian bowler after Kapil Dev, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Ravindra Jadeja to take 100+ wickets against the Three Lions.

Bumrah will now look to to become the most successful Asian Test bowler in England. For that, the right-arm pacer needs three more wickets in the ongoing match.
As of now the record is held by legendary Pakistani bowler and former captain Wasim Akram. During his 17-year-long Test career, Akram played 14 Test matches in England and accounted for the dismissal of 53 batters.
