India v South Africa - ICC Champions Trophy

#4 Jasprit Bumrah

India v South Africa - ICC Champions Trophy
Bumrah is ranked No.1 in ODI's

Jasprit Bumrah bowls with an unorthodox action. His peculiar action and his release point of the bowl makes his bowling troublesome for the batsmen.

Bumrah's pace and his ability to bowl constant yorkers set him apart from all the contemporary bowlers.

He used to play the second fiddle to Lasith Malinga a few years back, but now he is the crux of Mumbai Indians bowling.

Last year he was exceptional in IPL for MI and the highlight was his superb super over for them which won them that match against Gujarat Lions.

In his 16 matches last year, he picked up 20 wickets for the team. Today Bumrah is the prime bowler of India and is currently ranked no. 1 in ODI bowling.

Bumrah would surely want to play an important role for MI to defend its title. He would also want to snatch that purple cap from his national teammate and lead the wicket taker's tally.
