Jasprit Bumrah's no-ball incident in ICC Champions Trrophy 2017 Final still hurts

Bumrah had a sad story during the previous India vs Pakistan match in the ICC Champions Trophy which was played in the 2017 Final. Although Bumrah dismissed Fakhar Zaman in the early of the innings, it was a no-ball and the Pakistan opener set a match-winning century that helped Pakistan to lift the trophy for the first time. However, since then, the right-arm fast bowler produced strong records against Pakistan, especially in their last two meetings.

Bumrah's recent records against Pakistan are powerful and decisive

The India vs Pakistan last two meetings happened during the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 and the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, where Bumrah played important roles with the ball to secure India's success in those fixtures.
