AUS vs IND 2024-25: Jasprit Bumrah gives sneak peek into mindset after historic Perth triumph

Jasprit Bumrah led the Indian team for the second time in Tests and proved too hot to handle for the Australian team as they were delimitated by his sheer pace. After India were bundled out for just 150 runs in the first innings, Indian bowlers brought the team back in the game by restricting the hosts to just 104 runs.

All of the Australia’s wickets were claimed by the Indian pacers and Bumrah led the charge by picking five wickets. India eventually won the game by a massive margin of 295 runs with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli scoring tons. After the emphatic win, the right-arm pacer said that the team was well prepared ahead of the game and added that “if you have faith you can do something special”.

“Very happy with the beginning. Were put under pressure in the first innings, but the way we responded after that – very proud. Played here in 2018. I remember that when you start here, the wicket is a little soft and then it gets quicker and quicker. Was relying on that experience. This wicket was a little less spicy than the last one. We were really well prepared so I was telling everyone to have faith in their process and ability,” said Bumrah after the game.

“On a given day, experience does matter, but if you have faith you can do something special. Can’t ask for anything else. Jaiswal has had a great start to his Test career. This was his best Test innings probably. He left the ball – he has an attacking nature, but he left the ball well and played well. About Virat – I didn’t see him out of form at all. On challenging wickets it’s hard to judge if a batsman is in form. He was looking good in the nets. Always enjoy the support (from the crowd),” he added.

India will next head to Adelaide for the Pink-ball Test, scheduled to commence from December 6. They are leading the five-match series by 1-0. It is worth nothing that India need to win the series by 4-0 to make it to the World Test Championship Final 2025 without depending on other results.
