NEW DELHI: Jasprit Bumrah continues to redefine greatness in fast bowling. On Day 3 of the first Test against England at Headingley, the Indian pace spearhead became the first Asian bowler to take 150 wickets across SENA countries — South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia.
Bumrah reached this milestone with a phenomenal five-wicket haul, finishing with figures of 5/83 in 24.4 overs at an economy rate of 3.36. It was another near-lone-warrior effort from India’s ace as he dismantled England’s middle and lower order with unrelenting precision.

This marked Bumrah’s 10th five-wicket haul in SENA nations, making him the first Indian bowler to achieve this feat. He now sits just two behind Pakistan legend Wasim Akram , who claimed 11 fifers in these regions.
Additionally, this was Bumrah’s 12th five-wicket haul in away Tests, bringing him level with the great Kapil Dev . What makes this achievement even more remarkable is Bumrah’s efficiency — he reached the mark in just 34 Tests, compared to Kapil’s 66.
His SENA record includes four five-wicket hauls in Australia, three in England, three in South Africa, and two in the West Indies.
Only two of Bumrah’s fifers have come on Indian soil.
