Some said the complete package, some called the Terminator…’ What are the legends saying for Bumrah, what did Wasim Akram say?

New Delhi. Australia’s middle-order batsman Steve Smith believes that India’s star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah’s quirky bowling action and extraordinary skills make him/her the complete package. Captaining in the absence of regular captain Rohit Sharma, Bumrah took eight wickets in the first Test against Australia and was adjudged ‘Player of the Match’.

Smith told ‘Sydney Morning Herald’, ‘his/her bowling action is strange right from the beginning of his/her runup. he/she runs in a different way and the last movement of his/her action is also strange. I have faced him/her many times and every time it takes time to settle down at the crease against him/her. “In the first innings of the first Test, Smith was dismissed by Bumrah.

Steve Smith further said, “he/she comes close to you and releases the ball so that you don’t get time.” Apart from this, he/she can swing the ball from both sides. Reverse swing, slow ball, good bouncers, he/she has everything. he/she is a complete package as a bowler.

Former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram said that when Bumrah releases the ball, he/she is at least one foot closer to the batsman than other bowlers, which makes it difficult to catch the length of the ball. Former fast bowler Damien Martyn said, “he/she is a terminator.” he/she knows his/her strengths and finds the weaknesses of the batsman. his/her runup is not long but he/she bowls very cleverly.
