Chandigarh, August 19

India star pacer Jasprit Bumrah’s impact on sport has not been limited to being team’s biggest match-winner, but he is inspiring young generation with his fan following hitting a different level.

In one such example, a viral video of a young girl emulating Bumrah’s unique bowling action has taken the internet by storm.

The video shows the girl, in a school uniform, perfectly imitating Indian pacer’s signature style while bowling in the nets. The short run-up and the fast arm movement has been the trademark of Bumrah's bowling action.

The video of the girl has garnered appreciation from cricket enthusiasts and fans and is widely shared on social media.

Last month, a young Pakistani boy captured the internet’s attention with his impressive imitation of Jasprit Bumrah’s bowling action.

Even Wasim Akram had shared the boy's video and wrote: “Wah jee wah look at that control and action exactly like the great @Jaspritbumrah93 video of the day for me. #crickethavenoboundiers.”

Bumrah was one of the main architects in India's T20 World Cup 2024 win. He scalped 15 wickets and won the Player of the Tournament award.
