Jasprit Bumrah becomes second fastest Indian bowler to scalp 100 ODI wickets
Ace seamer Jasprit Bumrah added another feather to his cap on Saturday by becoming the second fastest Indian after Mohammed Shami to take 100 ODI wickets during India's final World Cup group stage match against Sri Lanka at the Headingley Cricket Ground.
NEW DELHI: Ace seamer Jasprit Bumrah added another feather to his cap on Saturday by becoming the second fastest Indian after Mohammed Shami to take 100 ODI wickets during India's final World Cup group stage match against Sri Lanka at the Headingley Cricket Ground.
The 25-year-old achieved the feat in his 57th ODI, one more than Shami, when he forced an edge off Sri Lanka captain Dimuth Karunaratne in the fourth over of the match which was neatly taken by wicketkeeper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Bumrah later picked up two more wickets - that of Kusal Perera and Angelo Mathews - to return figures of 3/37 as Sri Lanka posted 264/7 in their 50 overs.
ICC in a tweet lauded Bumrah's achievement, saying the fast bowler completed his century.
"A century of ODI wickets for Jasprit Bumrah 100. It's taken him just 57 games to reach the landmark - only one Indian has got there quicker. Can you guess who?" ICC tweeted.
