Jasprit Bumrah is one of the best pacers across formats in international cricket today. The Indian right-arm fast bowler has shown that even with his unusual bowling action, he has achieved success that was not expected of him.

Bumrah was discovered by Mumbai Indians (MI) and made his debut in IPL 2013 and subsequently made his India debut in T20Is and ODIs in 2016. Bumrah’s Test debut came in 2018 and since then he has been an integral part of many famous Indian team wins in all three formats.

Bumrah ever suffered a career-threatening back injury due to his unique action in 2022, but after spending more than a year out of action, he came back stronger in 2023 and went on to help India win the T20 World Cup 2024.

An interesting video clip on social media, possibly from his debut year with Mumbai Indians, has appeared on social media where a young Bumrah is seen objecting to him being mentioned as a "right arm medium" in a published story about him.

"Yeh galat likha hai (it's written wrong). Right-arm medium nahi hai na, right-arm fast hai (it shouldn't be right-arm medium, it's right-arm fast)," he could be heard telling someone while reading the story.
