Jasprit Bumrah registered his best innings bowling figures to help India take a huge lead of 292 runs on Day 3 of the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Friday.
He dismissed Marcus Harris, Shaun Marsh, Travis Head, Tim Paine, Nathan Lyon and Josh Hazlewood for figures of 6/33 from 15.5 overs. But the best of the lot was Marsh's wicket.
Marsh was looking to hold the fort but was undone by a sensational slow yorker which hit trapped him in front. Watch it here:
It happened off the last ball of the 33rd over.
Meanwhile, in the commentator box of the official broadcasters of the series, former Aussie captain Michael Clarke, impressed with Bumrah's smartness, continued to hail him as a genius.
In fact, Clarke went onto predict that Bumrah will be world top-ranked bowler in all formats of the game in the next few months. Bumrah is the currently 28th in the Test bowlers' ranking. but is the number one in ODIs 20th in T20Is.
The 25-year-old from Ahmedabad, in the process, became the first bowler from Asia to take a five-wicket haul in each of Australia, England and South Africa in the same calendar year.
