**Chennai, India:** Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who has been in top form in the ongoing first Test against Bangladesh, has been lauded by former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar. Manjrekar, impressed by Bumrah’s performance, declared him a “bowler without a weakness,” highlighting his adaptability to different conditions and opposition.
Bumrah, who claimed four wickets in the second innings of the Test, also reached a significant milestone, taking his overall international wicket tally to 400. He is now only the 10th Indian bowler to achieve this feat.
“We all know about his variations, his thinking – one of the sharpest thinking fast bowlers. We saw a certain amount of meanness as well in the way he bowled to Taskin. But the one thing that came through today was that he is a bowler without a weakness – whatever the opposition, pitch conditions and that’s actually the best way to judge greatness. You don’t see any weakness at all in this guy. Indian cricket is so fortunate to have him in their side,” Manjrekar told ESPNcricinfo.
Bumrah’s success stems from his incredible versatility and adaptability. With 401 wickets across 196 international matches, he averages an impressive 21.01, proving his consistent threat across formats. He is the sixth Indian pacer to achieve this milestone, a testament to his sustained brilliance.
His performance in the ongoing test further strengthens his position as a cornerstone of the Indian bowling attack. With his adaptability and unwavering performance, Bumrah continues to solidify his place among the world’s best bowlers, leaving the opposition in awe of his talent.
