About Jasprit Bumrah

Full Name: Jasprit Jasbirsingh Bumrah Date of Birth: December 6, 1993 Birthplace: Ahmedabad, Gujarat Teams: India National Team, Mumbai Indians (IPL), Gujarat (domestic) Jasprit Bumrah is not your traditional fast bowler. With an unorthodox action, remarkable control, and ice in his veins, he has risen to become one of the most feared pacers in world cricket. Born in Ahmedabad and raised in a modest household, Bumrah lost his father at a young age. Raised by his mother, Daljit Bumrah, a school principal, his story is not just about pace and swing — it's about resilience, patience, and unexpected brilliance. His talent was first spotted in domestic cricket when he played for Gujarat in the 2013 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. His unusual action and pinpoint yorkers caught the attention of then MI coach John Wright. That same year, he debuted for Mumbai Indians, where he immediately became a death-over specialist. Under the guidance of Lasith Malinga, Bumrah sharpened his skills and quickly became the go-to bowler in crunch moments. Bumrah made his international debut in 2016 during India’s tour of Australia in the T20I format. His performance was electric, and within no time, he was included in India’s ODI squad. Known for his deadly yorkers and calm under pressure, he soon became India’s frontline pacer across formats. In red-ball cricket, Bumrah defied all odds. Traditionally, Indian fast bowlers struggled overseas — not Bumrah. He made his Test debut in South Africa in 2018 and immediately impressed with his control and aggression. His maiden five-wicket haul came at Johannesburg, and from there, he never looked back. His performance in India’s historic Test series win in Australia (2018–19) was crucial. He picked up 21 wickets and emerged as India’s strike bowler in alien conditions. Bumrah became the fastest Indian pacer to reach 100 Test wickets, a testament to his skill and consistency. In ODIs, he has delivered match-defining spells, including in the 2019 World Cup, where he was India’s leading wicket-taker. Whether it’s defending low totals, breaking crucial partnerships, or bowling at the death, Bumrah thrives in high-pressure situations. Despite several injuries in 2022–2023, Bumrah made a sensational comeback in 2023, showing his class in the Asia Cup and the 2023 ODI World Cup, where he once again emerged as India’s strike weapon. In the IPL, Jasprit Bumrah is the heartbeat of Mumbai Indians. With over 150 wickets, he’s been instrumental in MI's five title wins. Whether it’s a super over, powerplay, or death overs, Bumrah delivers like few others can. Off the field, Bumrah is a private and grounded individual. He married sports presenter Sanjana Ganesan in 2021, and they welcomed their first child in 2023. Despite fame, he has always remained humble, letting his ball do the talking. Jasprit Bumrah is more than a bowler — he’s a revolution in Indian pace bowling. A symbol of modern India’s cricketing edge: calm, ruthless, and world-class.
