In Mumbai, India defeated Sri Lanka by a massive margin of 302 runs thanks to a brilliant bowling display by Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, and Jasprit Bumrah, the team’s top pace bowlers. Former cricketer Aakash Chopra of India stepped out to praise the bowlers as the Indian speed factory was wreaking havoc on the Lankan lineup.
Aakash Chopra, host of JioCinema’s daily sports program “#AAKASHVANI,” discussed the Indian speed three’s bowling display against Sri Lanka on Thursday. The trio consists of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, and Mohammed Shami. Jasprit Bumrah’s ball that eliminated Pathum Nissanka might be the best ball in the competition. The ball bounced off his pad and swung away. It was then that the ball was given to (Mohammed) Siraj. He had claimed six wickets against them the previous occasion, and he claimed three here. He had a fiery breath.
It was now time for ‘Sensational Shami’ to take command. He really is amazing, captivating, and remarkable. In just 14 World Cup games, he currently has 45 wickets. He claimed five wickets throughout this match. If the new ball had been handed to him, he would have taken seven. Mohammed Shami was simply amazing. While all other pace bowlers employ scrambled seams, turn their wrists, and bowl slower deliveries, Shami bowls seam up, allowing the ball to move freely. Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, and Mohammed Siraj. This World Cup, India’s bowling assault is the greatest it has ever had.”
Regarding batting, Chopra discussed the significance of Shreyas Iyer’s hit. “Shreyas Iyer played, in my opinion, the most significant knock of the day. He could have been more cautious with the manner he batted. No, that’s not what he did at all. He started smashing sixes and demonstrated that bowlers on the same surface can produce various outcomes if they had the right aim. He was excellent beyond measure.
