India tendría que agradecer a Akash Deep y Jasprit Bumrah si el resultado no fuera como el de Australia en el día 5.
In a moment of pure defiance, Akash Deep gave India a lifeline at the Gabba, leaving the Australians stunned and his own teammates roaring in celebration. The third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 seemed to be slipping away after Ravindra Jadeja’s dismissal, with the follow-on looming large. But Akash Deep, alongside Jasprit Bumrah, had other plans.
Akash Deep-Bumrah unforgettable stand!
The pair, known for their bowling exploits, showed immense character with the bat. Akash Deep’s gritty determination and Bumrah’s support brought calm to a chaotic situation. They blocked, ran singles, and most importantly, refused to fold under pressure. Slowly but surely, they ticked the scoreboard over, dragging India past the follow-on target.

And then came the moment — a six that will live long in Indian cricket folklore. Facing Pat Cummins, Akash Deep picked up a full delivery and, with a clean swing of the bat, sent the ball sailing over deep mid-wicket. The shot wasn’t just about runs; it was a statement.
The Indian dressing room erupted. Virat Kohli’s reaction—wide-eyed disbelief followed by a beaming smile—said it all. Head coach Gautam Gambhir and the rest of the team leapt to their feet, applauding what was an act of sheer bravery under pressure. While Akash Deep’s six became the highlight, it was the partnership with Bumrah that saved India from a potential disaster
