Jasprit Bumrah was once again the star of the show for Rohit Sharma’s side with figures of 5/72 from 25 overs heading into the third day, while also boasting the best economy rate among the Indian attack. “It will be a major concern for them, particularly if Australia do happen to win this Test match. Mind you, we’re a long way from that situation but if Australia can get themselves in front and when you’ve got those figures from one of your strike bowlers, what averaging 11, 17 wickets and you’re down 2-1, that would worry me,” Taylor said on the Willow Talk podcast.
