Jasprit Bumrah defends Yashasvi Jaiswal, Indian fielders despite multiple catch drops: 'Guys are new and working so hard'

While many might have expected Jasprit Bumrah to be livid with his fielders, the experienced pacer's response surprised many and underscored why he remains such a vital member of the team. read more Jasprit Bumrah has surprised the experts with his reaction to the catch drops by Indian fielders. Image: AP Jasprit Bumrah has come out in defence of Indian fielders after he suffered a horrific outing on Day 2 and 3 of the ongoing Headingley Test, dropping at least five catches as England scored 465. With the help of Indian fielders, England batters cut down the deficit to just six runs despite Bumrah taking a fifer . Three catches were dropped off Bumrah's bowling, including two from Yashasvi Jaiswal, who had a horrible time at gully, and one by the veteran Ravindra Jadeja. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Bumrah defends Indian fielders Nonetheless, Bumrah defended his fielders, saying that they are not dropping catches 'intentionally.' 'I am disappointed for a second when catches are dropped. It's part and parcel of the game, and the guys are new and working so hard. I don't want to create a scene and put more pressure on them. Nobody is doing it intentionally. So they will learn from this experience," Bumrah said. Also Read | Yashasvi Jaiswal sets unwanted record for dropped catches The 31-year-old pacer added that he tries not to dwell too much on dropped catches and moves on quickly. 'Sometimes the cold makes it difficult to catch. I try not to let it affect me and move forwards quickly.' Record-breaking fifer for Bumrah While Bumrah took five wickets, the rest of the Indian bowlers had a very tough time. Prasidh Krishna leaked runs at an economy of 6.4 despite taking three wickets and Mohammed Siraj at 4.5 (he took two wickets.) Jadeja went wicketless and Shardul Thakur was only used for six overs. With his latest five-wicket hail Bumrah became the first Asian bowler to claim 150 Test wickets in SENA countries (South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia). He also equalled R Ashwin's record for the most five-wicket hauls in the World Test Championship — both now have 11, though Bumrah reached the mark in just 36 matches compared to Ashwin's 41. Also Read | India still in control, but costly errors raise questions as England stay alive at Headingley Additionally, Bumrah became the first Indian bowler to take three five-wicket hauls in England and matched Kapil Dev's record of 12 five-fors in overseas Tests. The former captain is not expected to play at least two matches in the five-match series due to his back issues, which will come as a big blow for India. But Bumrah added that he doesn't think about the future during a match. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD During the game, he is only focused on outsmarting the batters. 'No. You don't look at what is going to happen in the future,' Bumrah said. 'You are there in the ground, in the moment. You have to do a job. At the moment, I'm trying to assess the wicket. I'm trying to assess what is happening. What are my options? How is the wicket behaving? Who is the batter here? What is he thinking? How do I outsmart him? What does the team require? 'I look at all of those things at that moment. I was not thinking about what will happen. How many games am I supposed to play at this moment? Focusing on the Test match. When the match is over, then you think about all these combinations.'

Oklahoma native Kristin Chenoweth excited to perform national anthem before Game 7 of NBA Finals

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — At 4-foot-11, Kristin Chenoweth always wanted to play basketball. It never happened, but she still made it to the NBA Finals. The award-winning actress, singer, Oklahoma native, Oklahoma Hall of Fame inductee and unabashed Thunder fan was the pick to perform 'The Star-Spangled Banner' before Game 7 of the title series between the Thunder and the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night. Chenoweth's performance will air live on ABC at 8 p.m. EDT, shortly before tipoff of the season's final game. She has performed on some of the biggest stages in the world — but doing the anthem for a Thunder game gives her butterflies. 'Let me just say, if they had anxiety medication for Thunder fans, I'd be taking it," Chenoweth, dressed in a Thunder sweatshirt, told The Associated Press after her soundcheck at the arena on Sunday. Chenoweth's Thunder fandom has been no secret since the franchise's early years, though she also has professed at times to liking the Los Angeles Lakers and New York Knicks as well. That said, the Thunder are clearly her top choice — so much so that she once told the Tulsa World she spent three hours bedazzling a Thunder hat. She went to Oklahoma City University after growing up in Broken Arrow, about 115 miles northeast of where the Thunder play. And her 8-year-old dog's name is Thunder. She even dressed the pup up once in a Thunder outfit. 'I never miss a game unless I'm on stage,' Chenoweth said. 'I was a cheerleader in high school in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, and I loved football, but my favorite was basketball. I like how much of a team player you've got to be. ... And this is my team.' Chenoweth has sung the anthem at a few Thunder games in the past, sometimes alone and at least once with children from her Chenoweth Broadway Bootcamp. That camp is part of the arts and education fund that she founded to cultivate 'young artistic expression by enriching children's lives through the power of education, entertainment and experience.' 'I've had some pretty big moments in my life in the entertainment field, but this one, I don't know why, makes me nervous,' Chenoweth said. 'I just am very honored that they asked. And I'm proud of these kids. I mean, we have come so far. Of course I want us to win. When the NFL has hired me for the anthem, you remain neutral. But the NBA didn't hire me for this, so I'm Thundering it up.' And the anthem — which the soprano finishes with her own flair — is a tough song to perform, she said. Singing the words written by Francis Scott Key about the defense of Fort McHenry is a duty she takes seriously. 'Actually thinking about what he saw, it's really important for me to remember the words and talk about what they meant then and what they mean to us now," Chenoweth said. Chenoweth won a Tony Award in 1999 for best leading actress in a musical for her role in 'You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown.' She received two other Tony nominations for best leading actress in a musical, one in 2004 for playing Glinda in 'Wicked' — she lost to co-star Idina Menzel — and the other in 2015 for playing 1930s Hollywood diva Lily Garland in 'On the Twentieth Century.' And in 2009, she won an Emmy for best supporting actress in a comedy series for her work on ABC's 'Pushing Daisies.' She returns to Broadway this fall, playing Jackie Siegel in 'The Queen of Versailles." 'I still have the desire," Chenoweth said. 'I think really what inspires me lately is young talent. I'm seeing and watching and learning from them. Hopefully they're learning from me. And there's nothing better than watching a budding talent whether it's basketball or a singer, an artist, it's my jam. What keeps me going right now is other people inspiring me to do what I love.'
