Jasprit Bumrah was the standout performer with ball in hand in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The premier Indian pacer, at times, kept India in the contest almost single-handedly and his absence from the field on Day 3 of the Sydney Test was failed big time by the side as they failed to defend a 162-run target. Although the other bowlers did step up in Sydney in Bumrah's absence, the sting he brought to the Indian bowling attack was absent. Scott Boland, Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc were in superb form in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 and their performances were instrumental in Australia regaining the BGT after a gap of 10 years.
