The Indian cricket team recently performed strongly in the Test series on the England tour and drawn it 2–2. Veteran Pesar Jasprit Bumrah could not win Team India in any match in this series, but he definitely made some impact. He had kept the team in the match by taking 5-5 wickets in the innings in 2 consecutive matches. Now after Bumrah, another fast bowler has done this wonders. These are New Zealand star fast bowler Matt Henry, who stressed the hosts with 5 wickets in the second consecutive match against Zimbabwe.
The second Test match between the two teams began on Thursday 7 August in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. In this match, Zimbabwe batted first and once again his batsmen disappointed badly. Like the first match, in this match, the hosts could not even cross the 150 mark in their first innings. This time too, veteran fast bowler Matt Henry broke the havoc on Zimbabwe batsmen.
Henry wreaked havoc again
Right -handed pace Henry once again shook Zimbabwe’s top order and piled the entire team for just 125 runs. During this time, Henry made 40 runs in 15 overs bowling and 5 batsmen their victims. This 33 -year -old fast bowler also got a good support from the second pacemen Zakari Fols. The 23 -year -old Fox, who is making his Test debut with this match, destroyed Zimbabwe’s top and middle order with Henry.
5-cicat hall in second consecutive match
This is the sixth time in Henry’s Test career, when he has taken 5 or more wickets in an innings. At the same time, this is his second 5-veic hall in this series. He did the same in the first Test match played in Bulawao. Then he took 6 wickets in the first innings, while in the second innings he also took 3 wickets. In this way, in the 3 innings of this series, experienced pacer got 14 wickets.
Opener Brendon Taylor scored the highest number of 44 runs for Zimbabwe. Taylor, who returned to international cricket after a 3 -and -a -half -year ban, scored 44 runs in his first innings. During his innings, he took a front on the pitch for 107 balls and also hit 6 fours.
