Famer Ricky Ponting: Despite India ending up losing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 1-3, ICC Hall of Famer Ricky Ponting believes that pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah’s exploits are not only the best he’s seen of a visiting bowler in Australia but probably also the best fast-bowling display of all time.

The 31-year-old Indian quick was adjudged the Player of the Series for his relentless bowling which seriously troubled the Aussie batters. Bumrah finished as the leading wicket-taker in the five-Test series with an incredible tally of 32 scalps.

During his iconic run, Bumrah also overtook former India captain Kapil Dev to hold the record for most Test wickets by an Indian in Australia – 64 wickets at 17.15 compared to Kapil’s 51 at 24.58.
