Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who is world-famous for his yorkers and slower deliveries, seems out of form these days. But he has the calibre to regain his form anytime. Meanwhile, Bumrah talked about his cricket career while talking to Cricbuzz. He also revealed the best moment of his cricket career.

Fast bowler Bumrah made his debut for Team India while playing against Australia in 2016. Since then, the young bowler has been bowling consistently well for the team. He was included in the Test squad for the South Africa tour in 2018.

Even though Bumrah has not played much cricket yet but has made a different identity in world cricket. When asked about the most brilliant moment of international cricket career, Bumrah had an amazing anecdote.

Jasprit Bumrah Reveals The Favourite Moment Of His Career

“That was the only time I was listening to what the experts were saying. Not about me, but about what the England team should do. They were saying that he only bowls the outswingers (to the left-hander). So I thought that if they are listening, if the England players are listening, then I’m in the game because I have the away-swingers as well,” Bumrah said, grinning, when asked about his most memorable spell.

“Keaton Jennings was leaving the ball continuously. As soon as the ball was near the middle or off stump, he knew that the ball will go away with my angle( from over the wicket). I thought he’s listened to the commentary, and that he will leave anything outside off-stump. I thought I’ll show him that I am still trying to do the same thing and then bowl the inswinger. I was sure he wouldn’t be expecting, just that I have to be on the right length. He didn’t even know… He left the ball and was plumb in front,” he added.

Speedster Bumrah is currently having a poor run in international cricket.

Considered to be the deadliest fast bowler in recent times, Bumrah has gone under the radar for his recent performances, especially the ODI series against New Zealand.

Bumrah went wicketless in a bilateral ODI series for the first time in his international career since making a debut for Team India in the 50-over format.

This, is in itself, enough to fathom what kind of run of form Bumrah is having in international cricket.
