Caught off-guard, Inglis smiled before muttering, “that swung heaps,” as his reaction was picked up clearly on the stump mic. The clip soon found its way to social media, where fans praised Bumrah’s skill and Inglis’s response to what could have been an awkward moment.Watch the moment here Inglis, however, could not make much of an impact with the bat. After Travis Head fell early to Arshdeep Singh in the first over, Inglis became the second to depart for Australia. Facing Arshdeep in the third over, the right-hander miscued a pull shot off a length delivery outside leg stump, only to find Axar Patel at deep backward square leg. By the halfway mark of the innings, India’s decision to bowl first had paid off.
