Very few have been trying to get down to the mechanics behind his deliveries, often leaving the best batsmen perplexed and licking their wounds for answers.
Clearly, the impact that Jasprit Bumrah has on the game can explain why any young cricketer would want to emulate him and copy his style. Not too long ago, another such video surfaced on social media in which a young girl can be seen aping Bumrah to perfection while bowling.

Jasprit Bumrah’s reach isn’t limited to just aspiring cricketers. He is such a big figure that even people as big as Virat Kohli were seen making a mimic of his bowling action.

This isn’t the first time that Jasprit Bumrah’s action has evoked this kind of fanboy admiration—he has responded in the past to fans and young kids who tried to bowl like him and has even judged their efforts to decide who came closest.
