In his outing against England on Sunday in the first test of the five-test match series, at Leeds, Bumrah grabbed his 14th five-wicket haul of his test career despite four drop catches on his bowling.
Bumrah notched his 12th five-wicket haul for India away from home, tying with the legendary Kapil Dev. He also became the first Asian bowler to reach 150 wickets in South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia (SENA). India ended the day with a 96-run lead, and the action ended prema

Bumrah once again emerged as a one-man army for India, registering a five-wicket haul to achieve a slender lead of six runs over England at the end of the second session, bundling them out for 465 runs.

Krishna struck early during the first session, removing the centurion Ollie Pope. After finishing with 0/51 in nine overs on day two, he bowled five more overs, taking 1/29. However, England still went way beyond the 300-run mark at the end of the first session.
Indian and England players wore black armbands on Day 3 of the first test at Leeds, to pay their respect to former England cricketer and club president of Gloucestershire David 'Syd' Lawrence, who passed away at the age of 61 on Sunday.
Former India head coach Ravi Shastri heaped praise on the team's wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant following his exceptional batting performance on the second day of the Leeds Test against England at Headingley on Saturday.
"We've seen four hundreds in the match so far -- three from India and one from England -- but which bowler has been truly special? For me, it's just Bumrah," said Manjrekar on 'Match Centre Live' after the conclusion of Day 2.
