Shane Bond on Jasprit Bumrah's uniqueness and coaching experience
Former Mumbai Indians bowling coach Shane Bond highlighted what distinguishes Jasprit Bumrah as a top fast bowler. Bond spent nine seasons working closely with Bumrah from 2015 to 2023, emphasizing the continual scope for improvement in any player. He shared that despite Bumrah being among the best of his generation, the bowler constantly seeks to refine his skills and adapt, especially as pace naturally declines over a career. Bond also recounted supporting Bumrah during his 2023 back surgery recovery, building a strong personal connection through shared experiences. Bumrah is set to play for India in a two-match Test series against New Zealand starting November 19, 2026.
