Former Indian cricketer WV Raman has heaped praise on Mumbai Indians’ Jasprit Bumrah for his devastating yorker that clean-bowled Delhi Capitals’ Prithvi Shaw in their recent IPL 2024 encounter. Raman took to Twitter to express his admiration, stating, “There are two things about that… yorker.” “[The first is that it is] almost impossible to play. Secondly, if that delivery doesn’t get a wicket, no other delivery deserves to get one!”
Raman’s words underscore the sheer brilliance of Bumrah’s bowling prowess and the lethal effectiveness of a well-executed yorker. The delivery, known for its speed, accuracy, and ability to deceive even the most skilled batters, has long been hailed as one of the most potent weapons in a fast bowler’s arsenal.
Bumrah’s ability to consistently produce such deliveries under pressure further solidifies his status as one of the premier fast bowlers in modern-day cricket. His yorker to Shaw not only secured a crucial wicket for Mumbai Indians but also left spectators in awe of his remarkable skill and precision on the field.
As the IPL 2024 season continues to unfold, fans can expect more enthralling displays of bowling brilliance from the likes of Bumrah and other top-tier cricketers, reaffirming the league’s reputation as a breeding ground for thrilling cricketing encounters.
