Jasprit Bumrah returned to the Indian team in the second T20I against Australia after a prolonged injury. Bumrah was recovering from a back injury that prevented him from competing in the 2022 Asia Cup and the first match against Australia. The star Indian pacer had a strong performance because he could bowl with perfect rhythm.

After the toss was delayed due to a wet outfield during the second T20I, Bumrah wowed the crowd that was willing to endure the multiple inspections made to ensure the playing surface was suitable for the match to proceed. When India decided to choose to bowl first, the T20I was reduced to an 8-overs-a-side contest.

For the fifth over of the Australian inning, Bumrah was introduced to the attack. The pacer had the last laugh as he delivered a precise yorker to clean up the Australian captain as Aaron Finch welcomed him by smashing a short delivery over point for a four.

The 28-year-delivery old's was exceptional, and it had such an impact that even Finch couldn't help but admire it and applaud Bumrah for his effort. As soon as Finch had recovered from the shock of being dismissed, he clapped and turned to face the bowler. A video of the same has gone viral over the internet.

As for the game, India held Australia to a first-inning total of 90 runs. Matthew Wade continued his form from the last match and scored a quick-fire 43 runs in 20 balls. His knock proved vital for the yellow brigade in the final overs. Axar Patel, with his spell of 2-0-13-2, was the pick of the bowlers.

Rohit Sharma was the star of the chase, scoring boundaries at a regular interval. He scored 46 runs in 20 balls to power the team to level the series 1-1. Dinesh Karthik finished the game with a six and a four on the first two deliveries of the last over.

The series decider will be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on the 25th of September.
