4th Test: Bumrah becomes sixth Indian pacer to take 200 Test wickets Melbourne: Fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has become the sixth Indian fast-bowler to pick 200 wickets in men’s Tests. Playing in his 44th Test match, Bumrah achieved the landmark when he had Travis Head flicking to mid-wicket and dismiss him for one, and raised both arms in the air in sheer joy. No one in the history of Test cricket has reached the milestone with a better average than Bumrah, whose average stands at 19.56, going past former West Indies pacer Joel Garner, who got to the landmark with an average of 20.34. Bumrah, who made his Test debut in 2018, is also the second-fastest bowler from India to reach the milestone, where he now stands equal with Ravindra Jadeja. The recently retired Ravichandran Ashwin is the fastest Indian bowler to pick 200 Test wickets, which he achieved in 37 innings. In terms of Indian fast-bowlers, Bumrah is the fastest, with the next best being the legendary Kapil Dev, who claimed his 200th scalp in his 50th Test match. Overall, Pakistan spinner Yasir Shah is the fastest to reach 200 Test wickets, when he reached the mark in just 33 Tests. In terms of balls bowled, Bumrah, with 8484 deliveries, is the fourth-quickest in the history of Test cricket to reach the 200 wickets mark after Pakistan’s Waqar Younis (7725), South Africa duo of Dale Steyn (7848) and Kagiso Rabada (8153). Bumrah didn't stop there and got rid of Mitchell Marsh and Alex Carey in his next 10 deliveries to break the back of Australia's batting line-up in their second innings of the ongoing Boxing Day Test. “200 sticks at 19.56. Unreal. What a bowler. Mind-boggling stuff. Well done Boom Boom,” said former India head coach Ravi Shastri on ‘X’. “The Greatest of all time is doing what he does best here at the ‘G’ .. @Jaspritbumrah93 is incredible ..,” commented former England captain Michael Vaughan on ‘X’.

Washington: A passenger jet carrying 181 people erupted in flames after going off the runway at an airport in South Korea’s southwestern county of Muan Sunday, leaving at least 62 people dead, with the death toll expected to rise sharply, authorities said.

The accident happened at 9:07 a.m. when the Jeju Air flight veered off the runway while landing and collided with a fence wall at the Muan International Airport in Muan County, South Jeolla Province, about 288 kilometres southwest of Seoul, reports Yonhap news agency.

Authorities confirmed 62 people were killed, with the casualties expected to rise sharply. One passenger and one crew member were rescued.

A total of 181, including six crew members, were aboard the plane that was returning from Bangkok.

Most of the passengers were Koreans, except for two Thai nationals.

Videos aired by local TV stations show the plane attempting to land without its landing gear deployed. The plane skidded along the ground, crashing into a concrete wall before exploding and being engulfed in flames.

The explosion almost completely destroyed the plane.

Authorities have extinguished the fire, and search and rescue operations were underway at the crash site.

Some 80 firefighters have been sent to the crash site.

Officials suspect the landing gear failure, possibly due to a bird strike, may have caused the accident. They began an on-site investigation to determine the exact cause.

Acting President Choi Sang-mok instructed officials to make all-out efforts for the rescue operations. Choi was on his way to the accident site, his officials said.

The presidential office said it will convene an emergency meeting of senior officials at 11:30 a.m. to discuss government responses to the plane crash. The meeting will be presided over by Presidential Chief of Staff Chung Jin-suk.

Acting National Police Agency Commissioner-General Lee Ho-young also ordered officials to mobilise all available resources and work with firefighting and other related agencies to help with the rescue efforts.
