Jasprit Bumrah Takes Up Batting Practice to Aid Mumbai Indians' Struggling Batters
Mumbai Indians' pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has taken it upon himself to address his team's batting woes. With MI struggling to make the IPL playoffs due to inconsistent batting performances, Bumrah has been practicing his batting skills in the nets.
In a video shared by MI's official social media handle, Bumrah is seen hitting some big shots during a net practice session ahead of their clash with Delhi Capitals on Saturday. The video highlights Bumrah's determination to contribute to the team's performance beyond his role as a bowler.
Bumrah's batting practice comes as MI faces a crucial match against DC, who are currently sixth in the points table with eight points. MI, on the other hand, is eighth with six points. In their previous match, MI suffered a nine-wicket defeat to Rajasthan Royals.
Despite MI's batting struggles, Bumrah has been in impressive form with the ball this season. He has claimed 13 wickets at an average of 15.69 and an economy rate of 6.37. His best bowling figures stand at 5/21, and he currently holds the 'Purple Cap' for being the leading wicket-taker in the tournament.
Bumrah's batting practice is a testament to his commitment to the team and his willingness to go the extra mile to help MI succeed. It remains to be seen whether Bumrah's batting skills will translate into runs on the field, but his efforts have certainly boosted the team's morale.
