What is crucial is for us to pressurize the opponents by picking up some early wickets. Although rain interrupted play, Bumrah said the team wanted to carry on with the match at the moment.

Bumrah picked two early wickets by dismissing Aiden Markram and Hashim Amla, while Kohli scored a gritty 153 and accomplished the 21st Test century of his career in the process.
