The attacking mindset from the Indian cricket team carried out from Day 3 to Day 4 at Lord’s, as Jasprit Bumrah unleashed a vicious delivery aimed right at Zak Crawley’s body in the ongoing third Test against England. It was a pure thunderbolt, but Jasprit Bumrah failed to do Pat Cummins’s magic.
The ball, angled in from a tricky length, exploded off the pitch and reared up sharply into Zak Crawley’s gloves just as he leaned forward to defend. The force of the ball jolted him, smashing into his fingers and lobbing off awkwardly toward the leg side.
Jasprit Bumrah misses Pat Cummins-style magic at Lord’s
Bumrah, sensing a chance, charged in full sprint and threw himself into a sliding attempt to grab the ball before it hit the ground. But luck wasn’t on Bumrah and India’s side. The ball flicked the fast bowler’s fingertips and fell onto the ground, and Crawley got the lifeline.
Your daily dose of cricket!

Crawley winced, immediately taking off his gloves in pain, clearly shaken by the impact. The blow looked serious, and the physio soon came out to check on him.
Meanwhile, Jasprit Bumrah’s efforts immediately reminded fans of Pat Cummins’ incredible reflex catch earlier this month in the second Test between Australia and the West Indies. In that game, Cummins pulled off a stunner by diving forward to catch Kaecy Carty off his own bowling.
The Australian skipper showed incredible awareness and athleticism, diving low and cleanly snapping up the ball just inches from the turf. It was one of the highlights of the series and instantly went viral.
