I'll be honest, initially I was sceptical, thought his success was just because good pace/awkward action. But the more I watch of Bumrah the more I like him, bloke is absolutely the real deal. If he can stay fit he has the potential to well and truly reach ATG status

Great bowler. Already anticipating the Bumrah v Archer thread.
He has only 18 test runs to his name. Needs to score a 50 in SENA before we begin this discussion.
I've actually been fanboying out since his first test, despite the fact he might have been the worst bowler on offer that match. Part of it was just cos he is an Indian. Never seen that x factor before from an indian. Srinath had a bit of it, but he was a developed bowler by that time.
Not just the fact that he was Indian though. Was hoping/expecting him to be damn good right from the start. A bit like Cummins. Both have exceeded my very high expectations.
Please stay uninjured. That horrible action scares me.
Edit: this isn't supposed to come off a a backhand to India. The rise of Indias pace attack might be the best thing I've seen in my entire history of watching test cricket. Such a joy to see,.

Seems like a genuine 11 does Bumrah. I like that, not enough bunnies in international cricket these days

Has significantly more Test wickets than runs to his name. Hero.

Yeah wtf is with the behind the stumps angle. Can't really tell how much it swings.

He has worked on his batting. I wouldn't be surprised if he's annoying to get out in the future if there's a batsman at the other end. Won't score runs but has that tenacity to dig in. An Anti-Shami.

he's the first indian quick i've ever been scared of when it comes to my team winning games. zaheer, shami and new ishant i respect but this guy is a level above.
he's so box office with his weird windmill action and the holding the ball out in front of him like a little big kid. great smile, steep bounce and swing to boot. love him.
