Born on December 6, 1993, Jasprit Bumrah first broke into the national scene in 2016. Following his brilliant bowling performances for Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Indian selectors called him up and ever since, he became India’s most lethal weapon in the pace setup.
His unorthodox action grabbed everyone’s attention and it made the batters difficult to read his deliveries. With Lasith Malinga by his side in Mumbai colours, Bumrah mastered the art of death bowling and has become captain’s go-to bowler in any format of the game.
Playing in 30 Test matches, the right-arm pacer has clinched 128 wickets at an average of 21.99. In ODI cricket, the speedster has notched 121 wickets in 72 matches and in T20Is, the 29-year-old has picked 70 wickets from 60 matches. Due to injury, Bumrah missed multiple key matches for India this year including the Asia Cup 2022 and T20 World Cup 2022. However, he has several records to boast as he turns 29 on December 6.
As he turns 29, here are his record and achievements in international cricket:
1. In August 2019, Jasprit Bumrah became the third Indian bowler to pick a hat-trick in Tests. In the second Test against West Indies in Jamaica, Bumrah dismissed Darren Bravo, Shamarh Brooks and Roston Chase to achieve this historic feat.
