The young Indian pacer, Jasprit Bumrah is more than just ready to spearhead the pace attack for the Mumbai Indians in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Currently, he is in phenomenal form and is expected to play a crucial role for the team. MI the three-time champions look to make a come back after failing to make it to the playoffs in the last season. The Mumbai-based franchise had managed to win just six games last year and finished at the fifth spot.
From last two seasons or so, Bumrah has been consistently performing for Mumbai Indians and this season the franchise will be hoping to see him at his best. The latest video posted by the franchise on their official Twitter handle was the testimony of the fact that Bumrah is looking ready to blow away oppositions with his fiery yorkers.

In the video, Bumrah could be seen churning out a single stump as consistently as it can get with his fierce and deadly yorkers. However, he was all over the internet not for his yorkers in the video but for another incident that the fans managed to notice.
In the clip, Jasprit Bumrah could be seen stepping down from a car as a gatekeeper welcomes the bowler with folded hands (Namaskar gesture). The cricketer nods his head in acknowledgment but as he looks up to say ‘hi’ to the camera, Bumrah missed to shake hands with the gatekeeper who had extended his hand for the same.
Here’s the video:

The incident was spotted quickly by most of the Twitter users and the reactions poured in on the incident. While some were disappointed with Bumrah’s reaction, few felt that the Indian players need moral education. However, there were a few who also defended the cricketer saying that he might not have noticed.
Here’s how Twitter reacted:

I think bumrah ne dekha nahi hoga that the man was initiating a handshake. Agar usne dekha aur fir b ignore kia to it's very bad.

Don't show ur attitude, otherwise tera hardik pandya ho jayega. Papaji ko hat mila leta to kya jata
