By IANS News January 01, 2025 • 14:18 PM View: 625

Centurion Boxing Day Test: Jasprit Bumrah’s scintillating performance in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia has elevated him to the highest rating points ever achieved by an Indian bowler in Test cricket as he consolidated his lead as the No. 1 bowler in the recent rankings update.

With rating points of 907, Bumrah moved past Ravichandran Ashwin’s 904 rating points, achieved in December 2016, and makes him the highest-ever ranked Indian Test bowler in ICC rankings history.

The 907 points placed the pacer as joint-17th in the all-time list – with Derek Underwood of England.
