Former Australian wicketkeeper and commentator Adam Gilchrist has compared Bumrah to great batsman Don Bradman in bowling over the influence of Jasprit Bumrah. Analyzing the match between Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians on Cricbuzz, he said, “He is probably the best fast bowler ever.” When you look at data and different situations in which they have to demonstrate their skills, I think if you compare Sir Donald Bradman’s figures with their peers, he is far ahead of them.
