India vs Australia, Final: Indian star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah
New Delhi:
is ongoing World Cup 2023 India’s star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has shown what a great bowler he is with his explosive performance in the mega event. It is true that all the attention is focused on Mohammed Shami, but Bumrah has a status of his own. And Bumrah has confirmed this in the World Cup. Jasprit Bumrah is the fifth highest bowler in the tournament with 18 wickets in 10 matches till the final, but the story does not end there.
Bumrah’s eyes are on top
Shami currently tops the tournament with 23 wickets. And Bumrah is the number five bowler, but the difference between the two is only five wickets. Bumrah is eyeing the top spot in the finals. However, it is not going to be easy. Shami’s form and in between are Adam Zampa (22 wickets), Madhushanka (21 wickets) and Coetzee (20 wickets). Bumrah has to take six wickets. However, now that Nazar is at the top, Bumrah will surely succeed in beating some of them. Bumrah may be lagging behind in terms of wickets, but in a way he has beaten all the bowlers.
Have I ever seen a figure like this before?
There are four bowlers above Bumrah, but when it comes to economic run-rate, Jassi has given everyone a message of how intimidating his storm is. After playing ten matches (if this is considered a criterion), Bumrah’s economy run-rate is just 3.98. After that, there is no other bowler in the top 20 who has an economic run-rate of even four runs per over. Everyone is above this. And this is enough to say and explain a lot about Bumrah.
