Jasprit Bumrah, the Indian speedster is known for his Yorkers; but at the same time, he is very good at deceiving the batters. The right-arm fast bowler has a very good slow ball where he easily foxes the batter. He has been an integral part of the Indian Setup for quite some time now.

Recently he also captained the Test Side against England for the 5th Rescheduled Test Match. The bowler looked as if he was used to captaincy. In that Test Match, the fast bowler had whacked Stuart Broad for a record 35 runs which was quite astonishing to see.

Tim Bresnan on Jasprit Bumrah

Tim Bresnan, former England all-rounder was seen interacting with News18 Cricketnext and was asked about Jasprit Bumrah. “I am not sure of a different side, you should be able to defend 209 (India failed to do so against Australia in the 1st T20I). If you have got two bowlers going at  12 runs an over and Bumrah going for 7 will eventually turn the whole equation to about 9 run an over. It will be completely different when Bumrah returns with full flow.” Bresnan said

“He brings a different dynamic and the batsmen have to think about this bloke we not gonna be able to hit six whenever we want. So they have to attack others bowlers a lit bit more which might allow them to take wickets. It’s a different thing from a batsman’s point of view. When you have got a death bowler like Bumrah, you offer him more respect and will take more risks against other bowlers.” Bresnan added

Jasprit Bumrah a Bit Scratchy

The right arm pacer recently against Australia made a comeback after 3 months. It looked as if he was off rhythm and that can happen but he was getting whacked by Australian batters. At the death overs, the fast bowler was unable to execute proper yorkers.

Indian Cricket Team relies heavily on Bumrah as he is someone who can rip the opposition off in one over. Some reports say that Bumrah has a stress fracture that could rule him out of the T20 World Cup; at the same time, an official confirmation is yet to come. If the reports are to be believed then it would be a huge blow to Men in Blue.
