IND vs AUS, 4th Test: Star India pacer Jasprit Bumrah's cheeky quip to Marnus Labuschagne went viral on the penultimate day of the MCG Test match. Bumrah took a dig at Marnus Labuschagne after the batter survived multiple close chances in his 139-ball st

Star India pacer Jasprit Bumrah's cheeky remark on Marnus Labuschagne went viral on Day 4 of the Boxing Day Test match on Sunday, December 30. Bumrah, while bowling to Labuschagne took a dig at the Australian batter for how lucky he had been throughout Day 4 of the Test match.

Marnus Labuschagne rode his luck, throughout his 70-run innings at the MCG on Day 4 of the Test match. After numerous plays and misses in the early part of his innings, Labuschagne managed to put up a decent fight against India. The India pacers - Bumrah, Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj had Labuschagne reeling on multiple occasions. Akash Deep even edged the batter to the slips, but Yashavsi Jaiswal was not able to hold on to the chance.

Earlier in the innings, Marnus survived an LBW appeal from the Indian's after he was struck in the pads. After umpire Michael Gough called it not out on-field, India opted to take the DRS - which showed that the ball would have hit the top of leg stump on umpire's call.

Bumrah made a quick remark on Labuschange during the final few balls of his innings, calling him the luckiest cricketer on the planet.

"You're the luckiest player I've ever seen in my life, Marnus".

Later, in the 56th over of the game, Marnus got out to Mohammed Siraj in a similar manner to how he was saved earlier in the day. Marnus fell over while defending a ball from Siraj, got hit on the pads, and this time the umpire, Gough, adjudged him out. Marnus immediately took the review, but the DRS showed that the ball would have hit the stumps, and the decision was upheld on umpire's call.
