Whenever Team India's great and legendary fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah comes on the field, he definitely makes some record in his name. On the fourth day of the fourth Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy being played between India and Australia in Melbourne, he completed his 200 wickets in the Test. He made Australia's ace batsman Travis Head his 200th victim in Test cricket. Not only this, former Australian cricketer and commentator Simon Katich was also seen praising Bumrah at Head's wicket and he even called the Indian legend 'King'.

Simon Katich called Bumrah 'king'

India and Australia are fighting at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with the intention of taking the lead in the series. Head, who was the most dangerous batsman for India in the series, was dismissed cheaply by Bumrah in the second innings of the Melbourne Test as well. After this, Simon Katich, who was doing the commentary, even called Bumrah 'king'.

Generally Virat Kohli is called the King of Cricket or 'King Kohli' but Katich used these words for Bumrah. As soon as Head's wicket fell, he said, 'It is official, King Bumrah. 'Boxing Day nightmare continues for Travis Head'.

While Bumrah had bowled Head for 0 in the first innings of the fourth Test, Head could score only 1 run in the second innings. Nitish Kumar Reddy took a head catch on Bumrah's ball.

Bumrah spoiled Head's birthday

Head's bat thundered a lot till the Melbourne Test. He had scored 409 runs in three matches with the help of two centuries. However, he flopped in Melbourne. Head could have given a big gift to his fans by showing a brilliant game in the second innings of the fourth Test on 29 December, but Bumrah did not allow this to happen. Actually December 29 is Travis Head's birthday. However, Bumrah spoiled the birthday of Australia's star batsman with his sharp bowling.
