Bumrah took the new ball in the second over of the innings and immediately extracted large amounts of swing from the green pitch and overcast conditions. It only took him four balls to bait Jason Roy into driving an inswinging delivery outside off-stump and playing it onto the stumps. Two balls later, former skipper Joe Root too had to take the long walk back to the pavilion as extra bounce saw him edge the ball to the keeper. Having dismissed both the batsmen for ducks in a double-wicket maiden over, Bumrah soon inflicted a similar fate upon Jonny Bairstow, earning Rishabh Pant his second catch of the match.

Bumrah’s figures of 7.2-3-19-6 surpassed Kuldeep Yadav’s efforts of 6/25 three years ago. The skipper for India’s final Test at Edgbaston last month also became the first pacer to take six wickets in an ODI in England in the process. Another feat he achieved was of recording the best figures against England in ODIs across venues. Lastly, this was the third-best bowling performance ever by an Indian in ODIs, only behind Stuart Binny and Anil Kumble in the list.
