Jasprit Bumrah Biography

Jasprit Bumrah is one of those players who got noticed in the IPL and made it big in his career. He is viewed as a death bowling specialist and has the capacity to bowl yorkers with deadly accuracy.

He rose through the ranks in the domestic circuit and it wasn't long before someone noticed. Jasprit Bumrah continued to terrorise the Ranji circuit and showcase his talent. Even an injury in 2014-15 was not enough to halt the Bumrah juggernaut.

It wasn't long before he made his inevitable national debut, against Australia. Though it was to fulfil the role of replacement for an injured Mohamed Shami, he took the opportunity with both hands. Bumrah was even useful during the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy. During that tournament, though the wickets were not tumbling as much, he was highly economical.

IPL Career

As mentioned before, Jasprit Bumrah was first discovered by the masses in the IPL. The league is basically a means to raise young talent and have them graduate into the senior team eventually.

Bumrah's bowling action was quite unique but it clearly suited him and it was effective. He would take a short run-up and followed it up with a snappy bowling action with his arms rigid as bones.

During his IPL days, having spent his entire IPL career with the Mumbai Indians, he served as Lasith Malinga's protege. When he first joined the team in 2013, like most newcomers, Jasprit Bumrah struggled to secure his slot within the team.

Soon, the student surpassed the master and gradually began to take Malinga's slot in the team. His importance over Malinga was cemented during a Super Over situation when Jasprit Bumrah was handed the ball.

IPL 2019 Expectations

This year, Jasprit Bumrah is back with the Mumbai Indians and he is ready to prove himself as an asset. His best ever figures are 3 wickets for 7 runs, set in 2017. That year, he had an economy of 7.35 and overall, his economy is 7.67.

Profile

Virat Kohli has had an impressive career since making his debut in the Indian team in 2008. He first broke into the national side in ODIs, soon followed by a 2010 debut in T20s and a Test debut in 2011.

Since then, his rise has been meteoric and he eventually took the mantle of India captain from MS Dhoni. ODI captaincy was up first in 2013, followed by Test captaincy when MS Dhoni announced his retirement in 2014. Finally, Virat Kohli was appointed T20 skipper in 2017.

IPL Career

Virat Kohli made his IPL debut back in 2008 itself for Royal Challengers Bangalore. Since then, he has remained in the team all these years.

After an average debut season, his form picked up in subsequent years. For two straight seasons, he was in the top 3 of highest run-scorers in IPL.

In 2011, he was promoted to vice captain and even took over as skipper when regular, Daniel Vettori was injured. When the latter retired in 2013, Kohli took the mantle of RCB captain, and has led the side ever since.

Now, for IPL 2019, Virat Kohli heads into the new season as the captain once again.

Expectations for IPL 2019

With regard to expectations, there is a lot of pressure on the team. For years, they have always been so close and yet so far. On paper, RCB have had the strongest batting line-up of all other teams, yet, they have failed to deliver time and again.

Between 2011 and 2017, RCB boasted of the deadliest batting line-up. To be precise, joining Virat Kohli was South Africa's AB de Villiers and West Indian giant, Chris Gayle.

Inspite of this, and Gayle smashing a few centuries here and there, RCB almost always bottled the job.

So, will the 2019 season be any different? Can captain Virat Kohli inspire his men to rally forth into victory? Or will Virat Kohli and the RCB squad succumb to defeat yet again, as was the case all these years?
