IND vs WI [WATCH]: Jasprit Bumrah’s frustration boils over as inconclusive DRS saves John Campbell on Day 4 of Delhi Test

Jasprit Bumrah didn’t mince words while expressing his frustration with cricket’s technology during the second Test between India and West Indies in New Delhi. The incident occurred when John Campbell, batting on 94, survived a close leg-before appeal off Bumrah’s bowling, a decision that sparked plenty of discussion both on and off the field. Bumrah, visibly unimpressed, made a cheeky remark after the DRS upheld the on-field call, suggesting that while the technology couldn’t confirm the dismissal, everyone knew the batter was out.

IND vs WI: Jasprit Bumrah’s frustration with umpire over John Campbell’s DRS call

The drama unfolded late in the morning session on Day 4 when Bumrah trapped Campbell in front of the stumps. The Indian fielders went up in a loud appeal, confident of the wicket, but umpire Richard Illingworth turned it down. After consulting with wicket-keeper Dhruv Jurel and captain Shubman Gill, India decided to review the decision. However, the replay sequence added confusion. UltraEdge showed simultaneous contact between the bat and pad, leaving the third umpire with no conclusive evidence to overturn the decision. The not-out call stood, much to India’s disappointment.

Bumrah, walking back to his mark, made his feelings known. With a wry smile, he muttered, “It’s out. You know it as well, but the technology can’t prove it.” The fast bowler had every reason to be frustrated, he had consistently troubled Campbell with late movement and sharp seam bowling but luck didn’t favor him. The moment summed up the morning session, where Bumrah beat the bat multiple times but remained wicketless despite relentless accuracy.

IND vs WI: Campbell holds nerve to reach historic hundred

John Campbell, meanwhile, capitalized on his fortune to reach a hard-fought century, his first in Test cricket. The left-hander, after being stuck in the 90s for over four overs, finally brought up the landmark by lofting Ravindra Jadeja over long-on for six. His celebration was full of relief and emotion, as West Indies and teammates applauded from the dressing room.

The innings was a redemption story for Campbell, who had endured criticism for inconsistency. His partnership of 177 runs with Shai Hope for the third wicket not only lifted West Indies out of trouble but also helped them avoid an innings defeat. For Bumrah and India, though, it was a case of near misses and what-ifs, the DRS moment highlighting how fine margins can tilt the game. Campbell’s ton made him only the sixth West Indies opener to score a Test century since 2020, a testament to his resilience and composure under pressure. Though Bumrah’s frustrations were evident, his fiery spell ensured India stayed in control as the match moved toward an intense finish.
