Official Jasprit Bumrah fanboying thread

[nightprowler10]

I recall him swinging it like a hoop in the opening overs of WC games on batting wickets.

Swing or seam? I didn't watch much of the WC due to timezones, so genuinely curious. He seaming miles but I didn't any swing from the matches I watched.

I think Lyon will have similar stats vs Ashwin/Jadeja .
This is nature of their overseas wickets

Bumrah is a very pragmatic fast bowler. He bowls for the result, recognising his limitations, and does not bowl for the spectators' entertainment. He bowls full lengths, medium pace and looks for swing, accepting that he must not dare to hit the deck. He knows that he will get hammered into oblivion if he dares to hit the deck.

I can see him succceeding in the hellish conditions of England, where the pitches are slow, the weather is rainy, and the conditions antagonise bounce.

I can't think of anything in modern cricket rallying up spectators as much as a Bumrah over, Bot.

So that's now two salty multis huh?

Bumrah reportedly was the first bowler to rank #1 in all 3 formats so it's not surprising that it's a short list.

Matthew Hayden and Shakib too

Shakib as batsman? Hope it's not all rounder ranking, that doesn't count

Why doesn't it count?

Can we merge this thread and "Is Bumrah an ATG" thread? Very similar stuff being discussed.

Too few contenders.

Yeah it was all rounders ranking. It's still a pretty good achievement though not quite on the same pedestal as batters/bowlers.

Don't merge these threads. "Is Bumrah an ATG" thread has plenty of trolls and people downplaying him (some have fair reasons too).

 

[Coronis]

Yeah, but till now it's a one of incident for Bumrah really. In the past he have finished 5 match series (eg last England tour) and he only really sit out in dead rubbers. If he gets injured 2 or 3 times more mid games, I can understand the critic. But it's a way too soon call really.

He’s actually missed a ton of games due to injuries. Not as many as Shoaib, but a ton still.

He had one big year off. Can't think of many other instances of him being just injured.
