Jasprit Bumrah’s record at Edgbaston in 2022 are correct? 1) Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah broke Brian Lara's world record by scoring 32 runs in an over. 2) The world record stayed with Brian Lara for 18 years. 3) Brain Lara had hit South African left-arm spinner Robin Peterson for his record. 4) Jasprit Bumrah created a world record for maximum runs off a single over in Test cricket by beating Stuart Broad.Solution
1. Correct. Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah did indeed break the record for most runs scored in an over in Test cricket, surpassing the previous record set by Brian Lara. 2. Incorrect (needs context). Without the exact year when Bumrah broke the record, we cannot accurately calculate whether the record stayed with Lara for 18 years. Brian Lara's record was se in 2003, so if Bumrah broke it in 2022, that would indeed be 19 years. 3. Correct. Brian Lara hit Robin Peterson, the South African left-arm spinner, for 28 runs in an over, which was the previous record before Bumrah's achievement. 4. Correct. Jasprit Bumrah created the world record for the maximum runs off a single over in Test cricket, which involved hitting Stuart Broad, the English bowler, during the match at Edgbaston in 2022. Thus, statements 1, 3, and 4 regarding Jasprit Bumrah's record are correct, while statement 2 needs context regarding the years to determine its correctness.
