Jasprit Bumrah is widely acknowledged as one of the game’s most intelligent bowlers, and his legacy is unmatched. His approach’s strategic thinking and mental acuity are largely responsible for his success. No matter what the circumstances or the amount of strain Bumrah encounters, he always comes up with brilliant plans that demonstrate his remarkable flexibility and fortitude to everyone.
Bumrah claimed that bowlers were very smart since they are the ones who had to carry out the difficult duty of hitting hitters out of the game. He went on to explain that bowlers now have more hurdles due to things like larger sweet spot bats and thicker edges, as well as having to fight with ever-smaller ground dimensions. He contended that these factors further reduced the chances of success for modern bowlers.
Because they have to remove the batters, I think bowlers are the most intelligent persons. Because the grounds are smaller and the bats are better, they are always up against the odds, Bumrah said at the Express Adda event on Thursday in Ahmedabad.
He also underlined how difficult the work was, saying that he took great delight in finishing it because it took a lot of courage and put a lot of strain on the body. Bumrah observed that conquering the previously described uncertainties encouraged creative approaches to achievement, which in turn made people stronger and more battle-ready. He argued that bowlers should be captains since fearlessness was a prerequisite for leadership.
“I take great pride in my work, even though it’s a difficult job.” It strains your body and requires a lot of guts. Bowlers discover new avenues for success; facing challenges increases one’s bravery. Speaking at the ceremony to the National Sports Editor and the Executive Director, Bumrah said, “I think being a leader requires you to be brave.”
He is a prominent example of a fast bowler who assumes a lot of accountability: A Jasprit Bumrah about Cummins
The speedster was gushing in his admiration for Australian bowling all-rounder Pat Cummins, describing him as a shining example of a player who carried a great deal of responsibility with a strong sense of self-worth. Bumrah pointed out that Cummins has successfully guided his side to victory in two significant ICC competitions, the 2021–2023 World Test Championship and the 2023 Cricket World Cup, both of which were won by the squad against India.
“We’ve observed Pat Cummins performing admirably. Bumrah thought, “He’s a great example—a fast bowler who takes pride in his work, wins the World Cup, and exhibits a great deal of responsibility.
In order to support his claim that bowlers were naturally clever, he also used notable fast-bowling icons like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Kapil Dev, and Imran Khan as examples. Although bowlers were clever tacticians, Bumrah conceded that controlling the overabundance of work might occasionally put a significant strain on the body. Bumrah concluded his case for bowlers to be captains by saying that bowlers were naturally excellent leaders because of their keen knowledge of the game and flexibility in field location while devising bowling strategy.

“I saw Waqar Younis and Wasim Akram captaining when I was a little youngster. Imran Khan has won a World Cup for Pakistan, and Kapil Dev has won one for us. Therefore, bowlers are the wise ones. Simply put, it strains them physically occasionally. In cricket, fielding, bowling, and captaincy are the three most crucial aspects. Bowlers are excellent leaders. They are aware of the sport and their responsibilities,” Bumrah remarked.
Notably, Bumrah has led India to victory in two Twenty20 Internationals and one Test match.
