Jasprit Bumrah is fondly called Jasprit Malcom Bumrah by Ravichandran Ashwin after his phenomenal bowling performance in the recently concluded Boxing Day Test against the Aussies.

The success of this Indian team compared to great Indian teams of the past is mainly due to their phenomenal pace attack, which is arguably the best in the world currently. The trio of Ishant Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami have run rattled the best of batsmen in all conditions taking 136 wickets amongst them in 2018.

Jasprit Bumrah’s 48 wickets in his debut year is the most for any Indian bowler. He has been Kohli’s go-to man this year. The bowling figures of Jasprit Bumrah in all the 4 overseas victories are sensational.

111/7 at wanderers, 122/7 at Trent Bridge, 115/6 at Adelaide, and 86/9 are major contributing factors for India’s dominance overseas. Jasprit Bumrah will be leading the Indian pace attack at SCG in the absence of Ishant Sharma.
