 Latest Updates 2025

Jasprit Bumrah has once again etched his name in the pages of cricketing history with a breathtaking performance at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground. As India takes on England in the fiercely contested Test series of 2025, Bumrah’s unrelenting pace, surgical accuracy, and game-changing spells have made him the talking point for fans, experts, and the cricket fraternity worldwide. This post dives deep into his Day 2 & Day 4 heroics, career milestones, live updates, match context, pitch conditions, expert opinions, fan reactions, and what this means for Indian cricket moving forward.

Lord’s 2025: Bumrah’s Spell That Changed The Game

Day 2 of the Lord’s Test turned out to be a masterclass in fast bowling, courtesy of Jasprit Bumrah. Bowling under overcast skies and aided by the iconic slope of the Lord’s outfield, he removed England’s in-form top order before lunch, setting the tone for India’s dominance. His precision with the new ball was a nightmare for the openers as he swung the ball both ways, and later, he exploited the old ball reverse swing just as effectively.

How It Happened – Over by Over Breakdown

Fans watching the match live were treated to vintage Bumrah. Starting with disciplined outswingers, he set up Duckett with a series of away swingers before nailing him with an in-dipping yorker. Root, England’s batting pillar, fell next — squared up by a delivery that seamed away late. By lunch, England’s middle order was already under pressure.

The Numbers Tell The Story

• 5 Wickets for 42 Runs – Bumrah’s final Day 2 figures before stumps.
• Career Average at Lord’s: 22.40 — one of the best for visiting bowlers.
• Career Total: Crossed 175 Test wickets overall with this spell.
• Speed Clock: Consistently above 145 kmph despite long spells.

For a bowler who was once called ‘unorthodox’ and ‘unsustainable’ because of his unusual action, Bumrah’s numbers now put him among India’s best ever pacers.

What Makes Bumrah So Special?

Experts say it’s not just the speed or swing that sets Bumrah apart. It’s his mind. He reads the pitch, batter, and match situation perfectly. His skill to bowl six different deliveries in an over without losing control makes him lethal, especially on pitches like Lord’s where conditions can change session by session.

Another factor is fitness. Despite playing in all formats and battling multiple injuries in 2023 and 2024, Bumrah’s rigorous rehab and work ethic brought him back stronger. His workload management is a blueprint for future Indian pacers.

Live – Day 4: Bumrah’s Closing Act?

As play resumed on Day 4, England’s lower order hoped to hang on, but Bumrah had other plans. With a slightly older ball, he delivered nasty short balls, angling into the rib cage, forcing Pope to fend one to slip. His combination with wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant behind the stumps has been remarkable — sharp catches, brilliant appeals, and strategic field placements.

Fan Reactions: Bumrah’s Cult Hero Status

On Twitter and Instagram, #Bumrah is trending top in India and the UK. Memes comparing him to Kapil Dev, McGrath, and Steyn flooded feeds overnight. His ‘silent aggression’ persona is loved by fans. One user tweeted, “Bumrah at Lord’s is like Messi at Camp Nou — unstoppable!” Another fan posted, “He doesn’t sledge. He just demolishes you with the ball.”

What Celebs & Former Players Are Saying

• Michael Vaughan: “Bumrah is easily the best bowler across formats right now. Incredible to watch!”
• Sunil Gavaskar: “He reminds me of Holding and Roberts — calm, clinical, ruthless.”
• Wasim Akram: “This boy swings it both ways with the same wrist position. Magic.”

Pitch, Weather & Strategy – The Bumrah Factor

Lord’s has historically assisted swing bowlers on overcast days. The slope creates natural drift and seam movement. Bumrah used it to make the batters second-guess which way the ball would go. Rohit Sharma’s smart captaincy ensured he bowled in short, sharp spells to stay fresh and deadly.

Personal Side: Off The Field Bumrah

Off the field, Jasprit Bumrah remains humble and grounded. Recently, his wife, TV presenter Sanjana Ganesan, posted a family photo captioned, “Proud of you, Jasprit! Always.” Fans love this soft side of their pace star — someone who switches from fierce bouncer machine to calm family man with ease.

The Bigger Picture: What’s Next for Bumrah & India?

This series could define India’s WTC cycle. If India clinches this Test, they’ll top the table and move closer to the Final next year. Bumrah is also set to lead the attack in Australia later this year, where pitches suit his bounce and pace perfectly. His fitness will be monitored closely — he’s too precious to lose to injury.

With young bowlers like Arshdeep Singh and Mukesh Kumar in the squad, Bumrah is playing the mentor’s role too. His tips on seam position and workload are shaping the next gen.

Final Thoughts: A Modern Great

Every generation produces a bowler who becomes a benchmark. Kapil Dev did it for swing. Zaheer Khan for left-arm variations. Now, Jasprit Bumrah is redefining fast bowling for India on global pitches. His spell at Lord’s 2025 will go down as one of his finest. Cricket fans can only hope he stays fit, hungry and keeps delivering such masterclasses.
