Vivian Richard Views on Bumrah

If there is one cricketer who has carved out a place among the hearts of fans without the slightest trouble in the last five years, it would be Jasprit Bumrah. The flamboyant cricketer has been outstanding for the Indian national cricket team in all formats and has continued to grow. Meanwhile, he received loud applause from the King of the West Indies, Vivian Richards.

Bumrah is currently ranked 16th in the ICC test rankings. However, this is white-ball cricket where it is usually at its best. Bumrah is the best bowler in the 50 over format. And it is also one of the main reasons why India now has a very powerful bowling attack.

Speaking of the same thing, legendary West Indian cricketer Viv Richards gave rich compliments to Indian pitcher Jasprit Bumrah. He went on to say that he would rather face the great Australian Dennis Lillee at the Australian pace than the Indian speedster.

Jasprit Bumrah was one of the discoveries of recent times. It is a quill-tune that has added a different dimension to the Indian attack in different formats. Whether it's an unorthodox action or finding yorkers, the young pacer has troubled batsmen everywhere and left an impact.

"I'd rather face Dennis Lillee than Bumrah because he doesn't have perfect action," Richards says. "With Lillee, you can see what he does but not with Bumrah. In Bumrah, India has a diamond in its arsenal. If he stays in shape, he's going to worry a lot of batsman for a long time to come. "

Jasprit Bumrah rested in the limited series against the West Indies. However, he joined the group for the two-match Test series India Vs West Indies 2019. The series also marks the start of the Indian campaign in the World Test Championship. With 18 wickets, Jasprit Bumrah was also India's biggest wicket-taker at the 2019 World Cup.

Bumrah's unique action can be a huge advantage, but experts have also expressed concern about its sustainability, saying it could lead to serious injury. However, so far, it has been a force to be reckoned with.
