BRISBANE: The India-Australia test series guarantees a gripping watch and the battle between these two teams has seen fiery days. One such incident happened today during the post-match press conference on the third day of the Gabba Test.

Cricket enthusiasts would be aware of how Aussie media handles Indian players. Their questions would be personal, intended to generate fiery responses from players. Over the years, such questions have pushed some players to the edge of venting their anger.

Indian pacer and vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah came to the post-match press meet after the third day of play. The media waited no time to rile him over the poor performance of the Indian batsmen in the Adelaide and Gabba Tests. However, one question popped up which took the seamer by surprise.

Journo:

“What is your assessment of the team's batting in the innings? I know you are not quite the ideal person to comment on batting but what do you think of the state of the team given the conditions at the Gabba?”

Bumrah:

“It's an interesting question. But you are questioning my batting ability. You should google who scored the most runs in a test over. You would be surprised.”
