Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami has said that he was surprised when he saw Jasprit Bumrah bowling for the first time. He did not understand how a player could get so much speed with such action. Shami saw Bumrah for the first time in IPL. By the time he came to the Indian team, Shami was getting to know him. Shami and Bumrah together have won many matches for India. Under Virat’s captaincy, the Indian team has consistently performed well abroad. In this, the contribution of Bumrah and Shami is very high.
Shami told The Indian Express that he now wants to learn to bowl yorkers from Bumrah. According to Shami, Bumrah’s yorker ball is very accurate and he wants his yorker to be as accurate as Bumrah. Although Shami also bowls excellent yorkers, his yorkers are not that accurate. On many occasions, Shami bowls a full toss ball for the yorker and the batsmen easily score runs against him.
Bumrah played the first match in 2016
Jasprit Bumrah played the first ODI for India in 2016. After this, he also made a place in the T20 team and made his Test debut in January 2018. 28-year-old Bumrah has taken 113 wickets in 27 Test matches. During this, he has also taken five wickets in an innings seven times. At the same time, he has 113 wickets in 70 ODIs, including a five-wicket haul. He has taken 67 wickets in 57 T20 matches.
Amazing performance in IPL too
Bumrah, who made his mark in Indian cricket by bowling excellently for Mumbai Indians, has taken 130 wickets in 106 IPL matches. He has not played IPL for any other team other than Mumbai. In the world’s biggest cricket league, he has spent runs at an economy of 7.42. Four wickets for 14 runs has been his best performance.
