Jasprit Bumrah bowled a devastating yorker to dismiss Alishan Sharafu (22 off 17) in the fourth over of India’s second Asia Cup 2025 match against the United Arab Emirates at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. UAE were eventually bowled out for 57 in 13.1 overs, after Bumrah provided India their first breakthrough in the crucial match.
Jasprit Bumrah had the last laugh against Sharafu, who hit a boundary off the last ball of the right-arm pacer’s opening over.
The blistering yorker beat the 22-year-old opening hitter from start to finish, including tempo. The UAE opening hitter was slow to jam his bat to the earth as the ball crashed into the off stump and the bails flew all over the ground.
