Jasprit Bumrah, who took 6 wickets for Australia in the first innings of the Gabba Test, broke the back of Australian batting in the second innings as well. He took 3 wickets in the second innings. Once again he troubled the Australian openers. Especially Usman Khawaja. After dismissing Usman in the first innings, Bumrah took his wicket in the second innings also. Along with this, Jasprit Bumrah also spoiled the mood of Usman Khawaja on his birthday.

What kind of birthday 'gift' did Bumrah give to Khawaja?

18th December was the fifth day of GABA test. Australia's opening batsman Usman Khawaja also celebrates his birthday on this date. Usman was facing Bumrah on the occasion of his 38th birthday. However, even on the occasion of his birthday, Bumrah trapped Khawaja in his net. Khawaja was bowled by Bumrah after scoring just 8 runs in 7 balls.

Bumrah dismissed Khawaja for the fourth time in this series.

In the current Border Gavaskar Trophy, Jasprit Bumrah has so far dismissed Usman Khawaja four times in 6 innings of three matches. Khawaja's form is becoming a cause of trouble for Australia. He has scored only 63 runs in three matches so far. Khawaja, who is going through a bad phase, may now have to look for a way out of the team. Former Australian cricketer Darren Lehmann believes that Sam Constas can be brought in his place in the team.
