Jasprit Bumrah earned his maiden Test call-up as he was picked up for India’s tour of South Africa on Monday, two days before his 24th birthday. Bumrah got a perfect birthday present as he was awarded for his excellent performance in the limited over format in the past 12 months. Bumrah is one of the finds for the Indian team and has been a revelation in the bowling department for the team.

Bumrah got recognition playing for the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League in the 2013 edition. He made his first IPL contract before playing in first-class cricket. Playing in the IPL gave him exposure of playing against and with the top stars of the cricketing world, one of them being the Indian batting stalwart Yuvraj Singh.

Yuvraj played with Bumrah in the T20I’s for India and wished the 24-year-old happy birthday on Twitter, “One of my favorite boy. Happy birthday Jassi, keep shining.@Jaspritbumrah93 enjoy ! Phir kya hogaya”
