In the semifinal of the Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 against England at the Wankhede Stadium, Jasprit Bumrah came to fox the opposition captain, Harry Brook, with a slower delivery as Axar Patel grabbed a fine catch running backwards to put the home side to a strong position in the game.
The replica has taken place in the final between India and New Zealand at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad when Jasprit Bumrah came to fox the left-handed first-drop Kiwi batter, Rachin Ravindra, who went back to the pavilion for just one run in two balls as the celebrations of the Indian side told the story of how big a wicket that was.
It was a delivery at 120 kph in the leg stump of the southpaw batter, who looked to pick up and play the flick shot and ended up miscuing it off the thick inside half towards the fine leg as Ishan Kishan ran forwards and put in a full-length dive to grab the stunning catch.

The ball actually popped out when the elbow hit the ground, but Ishan Kishan made sure that the ball would stay inside his hands as they sent the batter back. Earlier in the chase, New Zealand lost Finn Allen for nine runs in seven balls as the right-handed batter was caught at the long-on region.
