Jasprit Bumrah has lauded a young kid on the roadside emulating his action even saying that he has a bright future in prospect.
Jasprit Bumrah, who debuted for the Indian Premier League franchise Mumbai Indians way back in 2013, has one of the trickiest actions in cricket at present. He first gained the attention of the cricket fanatics due to his slinging actions despite being questioned by many about whether he could last long. But he has come a long way and has also risen in status by heading India’s pace attack across the three formats.

Jasprit Bumrah saw the video and advised the little star to continue working as his future looked bright.
“The future looks bright, little one! Keep at it,” Bumrah tweeted.

Mumbai Indians led by batsman Indian opener Rohit Sharma will try to win IPL for a record fifth time.
The awkward action of Bumrah was imitated by a child from New Zealand as well during India’s last bilateral series in February 2020 as it is increasingly difficult for batsmen to cope with his action coupled with extra pace and bounce. He, slowly and steadily, has added more arsenal to his bowling and has become a force to reckon with for India by leading their pace attack. However, his action continues to inspire young kids across the globe.
