Glenn McGrath recalled a visit by Jasprit Bumrah to the MRF Pace Foundation four years ago.

“I spent some time with him. Even then he was sharp and had a good yorker.

“ I told him he was jumping out a little and asked him to go straight through to the crease.”

McGrath added, “He is a freak in the manner he generates pace with his unique action.

“Bumrah’s speed doesn’t drop as the day progresses as I feared. He’s become stronger and is able to maintain his speed. And he’s got so much variety.”
