In sharp contrast, look at aging warrior Jasprit Bumrah. He is past prime, say a few ‘experts.’ Today, anyone on YouTube or Insta with a good ‘following’ is an expert. The very definition of who can decide on cricketers is an agenda. As for Bumrah, at 33, he is still lethal. The slinging action, with a release of the ball which can produce various trajectories and movement in the air and off the pitch, BOOM, as he is now christened, can be a ‘killer.’ He is, indeed, the bearded assassin, a bit like the old West Indies speedsters of the 80s who hunted in a pack.
