Jasprit Bumrah lone warrior of Indian bowling line-up since 2024 in test

Leeds [UK], June 23 (ANI): Veteran Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah continued to shine as the backbone of India's bowling attack, picking up his 14th five-wicket haul in Test cricket during the first Test against England at Leeds on Sunday, despite four catches being dropped off his bowling.
