Jasprit Bumrah Most Expensive Spell: The last match of the five-match T20 series between India and New Zealand was played at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram, where India won the series by 46 runs and won the series 4-1. However, Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah's performance in this match was very poor, which left many unwanted records in his name. Jasprit Bumrah failed to take wickets in this match, while Kiwi batsmen scored a lot of runs against him.

Jasprit Bumrah's bad condition

In this match, Bumrah gave away 58 runs while bowling 4 overs and did not take any wicket. These are the most expensive figures so far in his T20 International career. Before this, his worst performance was of conceding 50 runs without taking a wicket, which came against Australia in Hyderabad in 2022. At the same time, Bumrah also gave the maximum number of sixes (6 sixes) in this series, which is a new record for him. Earlier, he had hit 5 sixes in Asia Cup 2025.

Most expensive over of career

In this match, he also bowled the most expensive over of his career. He spent 22 runs in the 14th over of the innings. This over was played well by New Zealand batsmen Darryl Mitchell and Bevon Jacobs, in which shots like 4, 6, 6, 1, 4, 1 came. This is the highest number of runs given by Bumrah in one over of T20 International. Before this, his most expensive over was 20 runs, which came against England in 2017. In the same series, he also gave away 19 runs in another over.

Not only this, this was the first time in international cricket that Bumrah gave more than 20 runs in an over. Usually the batsmen struggle against Bumrah's yorker, slower and death overs bowling, but in this match the batsmen targeted him fiercely. Which surprised everyone. His performance has also created a big tension for Team India before the T20 World Cup 2026.
