    Bumrah Is A Combination Of Both Lillee And Roberts: Chappell

    By IANS News December 13, 2024 • 14:38 PM View: 758
    The Sydney Morning Herald: Former Australia cricketer Greg Chappell, who had served as India head coach, believes Jasprit Bumrah is a combination of the best of legendary pacers Dennis Lillee and Andy Roberts. He added that Bumrah is currently the one standing between Australia and grabbing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

    "I have always said that Dennis Lillee and Andy Roberts were the most complete fast bowlers that I faced. How does Bumrah, with his unorthodox action and masterful control, measure against these two and the other titans of modern fast bowling?

    "Bumrah, though less overtly combative, channels Lillee’s ability to unsettle batsmen. His deadly yorkers and disconcerting bounce – especially with his unorthodox release point and trajectory – echo Lillee’s capacity to dictate terms. Bumrah’s quiet intensity and precision make him a nightmare, much like Lillee’s unrelenting aggression.
