New Delhi: Jasprit Bumrah is proving time and again why he is such a crucial asset for Indian cricket in the current scenario. The fans are lauding him on the internet as a class apart player who always puts India in command whenever the team gets in a tricky situation. In the ongoing Perth Test, he picked a five wicket haul in the first innings to bowl out Australia for only 104, getting India a lead of 46 runs.
Bumrah, who was also a key player in helping India lift the T20 World Cup in June this year, was lauded by cricket pundits and fans across the world for his powerful spell in the final against South Africa, which shifted the momentum in India’s favour. Even his teammates couldn’t stop lavishing praise on him as Mohammed Siraj in a conversation with Dinesh Karthik said, “I am only believe on Jassi bhai because game changer player he is, only one guy Jasprit Bumrah.”
The comment went viral in no time as all Indian fans resonated with the right-arm pacer who conveyed the feeling of the nation in an exact manner. Bumrah, with his art, has helped India win several games, and similar seems to be the case for this Perth Test. Bumrah’s masterclass was also witnessed by Team India T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav, who appreciated the fast bowler in the style of Mohammed Siraj.
Taking to his Instagram account, Suryakumar Yadav posted a picture of Bumrah on his story and captioned it – “Game changer player he is”.
