While the Indian pace-bowling line-up has now grown up as the match-winner, the right-arm fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has played a very important role to make this dream successful. By utilising his unorthodox bowling action properly, Bumrah has grown up in the game very quickly and effectively, especially after his Test debut.

Bumrah has played 14 Tests, 64 ODIs and 50 T20Is where he has taken 68, 104 and 59 wickets respectively. The right-arm fast-bowler is the leading T20I wicket-taker for India.

Bumrah has the ability to deliver a ball in 150+ kmph while his average bowling speed is over 140 kmph. During the Adelaide Test in 2018, Bumrah delivered a ball in around 153.26 kmph. He also proved his consistent fast-bowling skills in the past IPL tournaments.
