IND vs SA: Michael Vaughan, Dale Steyn reserve ultimate praise for ‘best in the world’ Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah couldn’t have hoped for a better return to the field where he started in the Cricket Test. In 2018, Bumrah was released as a red ball for the first time in the Cape Town opener against South Africa. Four years later, he returned to the same venue to complete his seventh five-wicket wicket, making India a hit in history.

Mighty was impressed by Bumrah’s efforts on Wednesday, with former cricketers Michael Vaughan and Dale Steyn retaining their ultimate praise for the Indian pacer.

“How good is @Jaspritbumrah93!!! I think he’s the best player in the world right now… Bumrah gave India a perfect start to day 2, Aiden Markram in the second match of the day Fired with a great shot.

Umesh Yadav and Mohammed Shami then relinquished the middle order before Bumrah fought back again to dismiss Marco Jansen, Keegan Petersen and Lungi Ngidi as the pacers picked the seventh five-wicket in Test cricket. The figure of 5/42 recorded by Bumrah is also the best bowling figure for a Cape Indian fast bowler, surpassing the best record of 5/114 set by Sreesanth during the 2010/11 tour.

All seven fifers in Bumrah ran away from home. He is now tied for fourth with Irfan Pathan, an Indian striker who has taken the most five wickets away from home. The legendary Kapil Dev tops the list with 12 named after him, followed by Ishant Sharma (9) and Zaheer Khan (8).

About Squid Game

Squid Game season two premiered on December 26 last year. It starred Lee Jung-jae and centred around a secret competition in South Korea that target people in debt and the winner get a big cash prize. However, losing the game is deadly. Directed by Hwang Dong-hyuk, Squid Game season one released in 2021.

Speaking with AP recently, Dong-hyuk said that he originally conceived of the show 15 years ago as a two-hour film but it failed to gain traction with financiers or even interested actors. He put it aside and worked on other films instead. He then had the idea to make it a TV series instead and took the project to Netflix. There, it could reach a wide audience. “I never in my wildest dream thought it was going to be this huge,” he had said.
