Bumrah has played 48 matches of which:

a) At home - 12 matches

  • we have won 7 matches
  • lost 3 matches (2 vs NZ and 1 vs England)
  • he has picked up 47 wickets @ 17.19
  • put that into context he has averaged less than 20 on one of the most spin friendly tracks in the world

b) Away - 35 matches

  • we have won 13 matches
  • in Australia: 64 wickets @ 17.15
  • in England: 51 wickets @ 26.19
  • in NZ: 6 wickets @ 31.66
  • in SA: 38 wickets @20.76
  • in WI: 13 wickets @ 9.23

C) Netural - 1 match (no wickets)

Bumrah’s contribution:

  • Wins: 110 wickets @ 14.50
  • Losses: 85 wickets @ 26.24
  • draws: 24 wickets @ 21.24

Overseas wins featuring Bumrah include JoBurg, Nottingham, Adelaide, Melbourne, Perth , Lords, Oval and Cape Town

Ridiculous people claim such a match winner is some sort of bad luck sign. The real question is why isn’t the team stepping up when Bumrah is trying his heart out?

Bro, you really did a fantastic job of pulling out these stats. I would request if you could also pull out the stats of his bowling in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th innings of the tests that will further help in understanding his contribution.

Thanks mate

First innings: 44 wickets @ 23.20 Second innings: 86 wickets @18.51 Third innings: 44 wickets @17.63 Fourth innings: 45 wickets @ 21.15

He is consistently brilliant across all innings - it’s unreal
