5 years ago, on this day, India won the Oval test. Will never forget these 2 wickets of Pope and Bairstow within a span of 5 balls from Bumrah. Ball started to reverse a bit. Masterclass of two different seam orientations for two different lengths.

Ollie pope is made to exist in every fast bowlers Yorker compilations

More like Bowled compilation. Tower of Pisa might never fall over, but Ollie Pope surely will.

The wicket of Ollie Robinson was even more spectacular. The way switched to round the wicket and bowled that slower delivery on the middle stump to get him out LBW. It was his second greatest slower balls.

That yorker was a treat to eyes. That length to pope was the best

Virat called this "the best spell" he's ever seen. It was a 6 or 7 over spell by Bumrah, if I remember correctly. It was absolutely sublime to watch!

lords 2021 rightly gets all the accolades, but the oval test is an underrated masterpiece. Had India played at old trafford, they would have won the series.

That short spell ranks second for me after ishant debut spell to ponting down under

And that slower ball to dismiss ollie robbinson

Both are masterpiece of Reverse swing. That spell own the match🇮🇳

Better ball, actually, was Ishant's ball to Barstow in Lords.

Bumrah is the man

Bumrah doing Bumrah things

what a test series! Host were enjoying test matches more than one day or T39 matches. English crowd had treated India like match vs WI in 70s-80s and bs AUS till date, guessed due to full stand for all days.
