Sanjana Ganesan’s Son Poses with Jasprit Bumrah’s Headingley Fifer Ball

Sanjana Ganesan, the wife of Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah, shared an endearing picture on Instagram. The image featured their son, Angad, holding the red cricket ball from Bumrah’s recent five-wicket haul at Headingley. The ball was inscribed with “England,” “Jasprit Bumrah,” and Bumrah’s bowling figures: 24.4-5-83-5. Bumrah’s performance saw him take the wickets of Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Joe Root, Chris Woakes, and Josh Tongue. The overall Indian bowling attack included Mohammed Siraj (2/122) and Prasidh Krishna (3/128) as England scored 465, just six runs shy of India’s first innings total of 471. Bumrah, commenting on the conditions, noted the pitch was “a little bit two-paced” but didn’t foresee “big demons.” He aimed to get a significant score and build a lead. He also reflected on dealing with setbacks in the game, acknowledging the need to move forward quickly. Numerous dropped catches by India impacted the final outcome.
