“It seems like they didn’t give Jasprit Bumrah much support,” Bharat Arun writes. The bowling performance of India in Centurion

Bharat Arun, a former Indian bowling coach, spoke about the impact of India’s bowling performance on the team during the first Test match against South Africa in Centurion. India lost the match by an innings and 32 runs after giving up 408 runs in the second innings, giving the hosts a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series.

Bharat Arun expressed his satisfaction with Jasprit Bumrah’s performance, saying the ace fast didn’t receive enough help from his fellow pacers. The hosts amassed a huge first-inning total, thanks in large part to the non-performance of Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna.

“There was an excessive number of boundaries scored. It’s critical to adjust your bowling under various conditions. Just being aware of the circumstances will be more than enough for you to adjust if you are in good form. International bowlers ought to be far more adaptable than those who are just getting started, in my opinion. We ought to have adjusted, in my opinion, given the Indian team’s experience. Although Jasprit Bumrah bowled incredibly well, Arun told Revsportz, “I don’t think the rest of them supported him much the way they should have.”

“Don’t give up so many runs at that speed, at the very least. It becomes crucial for them to set up Test matches how quickly they score runs. In my opinion, the most important factor in bowling success is bowling discipline. A bowling unit’s ability to comprehend and be more aware of the conditions they are bowling in, as well as how long they are likely to last, is crucial.

It was amazing to witness India’s comeback and Rahul’s achievement of the century. Bharat Arun

Arun continued to heap accolades on KL Rahul’s century, which came at a crucial juncture and enabled the team to rally for a respectable 245 runs. He did, however, voice his dissatisfaction with the Indian hitters’ performance in the second inning, when they managed just 131 runs.

It was really remarkable to witness India’s comeback and to witness [KL] Rahul achieve that century. And the bowlers had a lot of assistance at the wicket. Thus, we felt quite good about the entire situation. And we reasoned that this would definitely make for a test match. I don’t mind if a Test match is won or lost. But we gave up so easily in the second innings of the last Test, and I believe that’s not a good feeling,” he continued.
