Now, Ravi Shastri had added another feather to his cap as the former Indian Head coach was present on-air when Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah took a liking over Stuart Broad on Day 2 of the rescheduled fifth test match.

Bumrah tore apart Broad as the right arm pacer scored 35 of the over, with 29 of them coming from his bat. With his blistering performance, Bumrah now holds the record for scoring the most runs in an over in Tests, beating the second-best of 28 by a comfortable margin.

Shastri tweeted that he was at the right place and at the right time for witnessing two incredible feats in international cricket, i.e. Yuvraj Singh hitting six sixes and Bumrah scoring 35 runs in one over. Coincidentally, Stuart Broad was at the receiving end on both occasions.

“Just when you think you have seen it all, this game surprises you even more. Fascinating batting from @Jaspritbumrah93 to smash the red cherry for 29 in an over. First in Durban with @YUVSTRONG12 & now in Birmingham. On-air right place right time for 35 and 36,” Shastri tweeted.

Bumrah’s fiery batting has driven India past 400. After a powerful batting display, the Indian skipper led from the front and picked up three wickets upfront. At the moment, the rain stopped play and England is 60 for 3.

Highlights:

• Ravi Shastri shares a special tweet honouring Bumrah’s historic feat.

• Bumrah scores 35 off Stuart Broad’s over, breaking the World Record for most runs in an over.
