With the wicket, Shubman Gill's average in the ongoing BGT 2024-25 series is exactly 20, as his 80 runs in 4 innings have so far produced the highest score of 31, which came during the 1st innings of the Adelaide Test.
Shubman Gill has been constantly failing to convert his starts into big scores, as his place in the side will soon be coming under huge scrutiny, if the 'Prince' continues to fail overseas.
Jasprit Bumrah One Shy Off History
Jasprit Bumrah is arguably India's greatest find in the past 10 years, as the bowler from Gujarat has been pivotal in India's success since 2016, be it at home, or overseas. Within his 8-year-old career, the right-arm pacer is already competing for the title of greatest-ever fast bowler, and gets his name placed alongside the all-time greats such as Glenn McGrath, Courtney Walsh, Malcom Marshall, Mohammad Asif, James Anderson, and many more.
On Saturday, if Jasprit Bumrah scalps one more wicket, the Indian pacer will become the highest-ever wicket taker from the nation in a Test series played Down Under.
