WATCH: Jasprit Bumrah nails signature yorker to clean up Glenn Maxwell in 3rd IND-AUS ODI | Cricket News
Coming over the wicket, angling the old ball in, banging it near the batter’s legs before it clips the off stump. Jasprit Bumrah has done it countless times in limited overs cricket, and then some in Tests, so it was really no surprise when he did so to remove Glenn Maxwell in the third ODI between India and Australia on Wednesday.Most Read

Bumrah, who marked his comeback to international cricket last month after a year long hiatus recovering from a recurring back injury, had been rested for the second ODI in Indore.
Australia, who had lost the first two games in the three ODI series, won the toss in the dead rubber and opted to bat first. Fifties from David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne helped the team post 352/7 in their quota of 50 overs.
Having won the ODI series earlier in India this year, the five-time world champions walk into the 50-overs World Cup with back to back bilateral series defeats to South Africa and tournament hosts, India.
