Jasprit Bumrah:

Bumrah, India's pace spearhead, has limited experience against Pakistan in T20 World Cups, with just one wicket in two matches. However, in T20Is, he has taken two wickets in three matches with an economy rate of 6.20. Across all formats, Bumrah has taken nine wickets against Pakistan, including best figures of 2/19.
