Elder woman mimics Jasprit Bumrah's bowling action, the bowler loves it

Update: 2019-07-14 14:08 IST

Jasprit Bumrah has been a standout performer for India over the past couple of years. Delivering the goods consistently across all three formats of the game, the pacer has emerged as Virat Kohli's knight in the shining armour.

Possessing immaculate control over line and length, Bumrah has been troubling batsmen all around the globe.

Also, what makes the 25-year-old's skill more potent is his peculiar action. The bowler uses a short run-up, gathers momentum towards the tramline and draws pace from incredible pyrotechnics.

The unusual action has caught the eyes of many experts and fans, including an elderly woman who even tried to emulate the same.

In a video that posted on Twitter, an aged cricket fan is seen holding a ball and mimicking Bumrah's run-up towards the crease. Leaving the fans in splits, the video is currently busy doing rounds on social media.

"Just like the rest of us, the mothership was so impressed with Bumrah's performance in the world cup, that she decided to mimic his run-up," read the Twitter account while sharing the video.

Interestingly, the video seems to have even quirked up Jasprit Bumrah as well. The Indian star shared the video on his Twitter handle and replied, "This made my day."

Bumrah, who is currently the No 1 ranked ODI bowler, was India's highest wicket-taker in World Cup 2019 before the team got knocked out in the semi-finals. While India will soon tour the Windies, it is unclear whether the fast bowler will be a part of the squad or rested to ease the load off him.
