Why Nicholas Pooran Needs To Watch Out For Bumrah
Nickolas Pooran needs to approach Jasprit Bumrah carefully after their past IPL cricket encounters. During his five encounters versus Bumrah Pooran hit only 13 runs twice through Mi Speedster’s delivery as their rivalry became evident. The batting performance of Pooran was hindered by Bumrah’s accuracy and variation techniques which resulted in an average of 6.50 alongside a strike rate of 72.22. The important upcoming match for LSG requires Pooran to develop innovative strategies against Bumrah since the team’s playoff prospects depend on it.
Why Rishabh Pant Needs To Watch Out For Bumrah
Rishabh Pant must show extreme caution because Jasprit Bumrah holds a strong advantage over him in IPL matches.

Pant’s batting performance fell short in 55 innings of 46 balls with a moderate 119.56 attack rate. The 7.85 batting average shows why Pant struggles with Bumrah’s precise and quick delivery style.
