Jasprit Bumrah has been one of India's premier pacers across all formats in the past decade. The Ahmedabad-born cricketer has held the baton of India's bowling attack, ever since his debut in 2016.
And most recently, he was India's shining beacon in the high-voltage clash against Pakistan in the group stages of the 2024 T20 World Cup in New York.
Bumrah bowled a match-winning spell in India's narrow but thrilling comeback win against Pakistan. The 30-year-old finished with impressive figures of 3-14 in four overs, not giving an inch to the opposition batters.
