Well, this isn’t the first time when Bumrah has tried something different, especially during nets. It was in 2017. ahead of an ODI against Australia in Bengaluru, when Bumrah had turned left-arm spinner. The video was shared by Jasprit Bumrah on his Instagram account.
“Let me show you something. This is Jasprit Bumrah, bowling left-arm… ambidextrous,” he said in the video. “Let’s see if he can do it again.”
Meanwhile, Bumrah will be seen back in action after a long time, while playing for his team Mumbai Indians in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League.
As Lasith Malinga has pulled out of this year’s edition of IPL due to personal reasons, Bumrah is having a lot of responsibilities on his shoulder. IPL 2020 kickstarts on 19th September with Mumbai Indians locking their horns with Chennai Super Kings in the season opener.
