Jasprit Bumrah seems to have divided his opinion with his recent post, which refuted Mohammad Kaifho’s evaluation of his performance Asia Cup 2025. The rapid pitch was involved in short back and back with the former Indian cricket, who shared his thoughts on why Bumrah Bowling had three overs in PowerPlay.
In a reply that many considered to be curt, Bumrah called Kaif’s analysisIt is inaccurate. The rapid pitch also remembered one of Kaif’s earlier observations about his bowling and noted that it was also outside the brand.
“Bumhrah under Rohit would generally mix over 1, 13, 17, 19. Under Surya, in the Asian Cup, the magic of three takeover bowed at the beginning. To prevent injury, Bumhrah prefers a bowl these days while his body is warmed.
“Inaccurate, again, inaccurate again,” Bumrah shot.
Kaif then waved the white flagHe urges Bumrah to take his notes on social media only as cricket observations from “well -friendly and admirers”. The former Indian cricket, which was among the best terrains of his era, decided to escalate and instead responded and recognized Bumhrah’s ongoing battle with the risk of injury and continued to appear across formats.
“You are the biggest winner of the Indian cricket and I know what it means to give everything when India is wearing the colors of India,” Kaif added. SCREENGRAB ZX
While a large number of fans supported Bumhrah and claimed that it was well refuted to refute the assessment, which he considered unfair, others pointed out that it was not the first time KAIF dared to take a courageous look.
In July this year, KAIF suggested that Bumrah could leave the test cricket and claimed that the body of the fast bowler gave up. His notes followed Bumhra’s decision to select and choose tests during the Indian tour of England, where he played only three out of five matches. Team management and selectors have constantly allowed Bumrah to manage his workload for repetition of back problems.
In Australia, Bumrah focused on all five tests of the much-awaited trophy-Gavascar, but in Sydney disintegrated in the middle of the key referee series. He faced criticism for the matches and the series “picking up cherry”, but both leadership and selectors, stood firmly at him and claimed that he had the right to manage his body. Spearhead, one of the biggest Indian wing winners across formats, missed the Champions Trophy campaign, but returned to the full Indian Premier League with the Indians in Mumbai in time.
On the other hand, some questioned the need for Bumhra’s reaction to KAIF and stressed that legends like Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar and Rohit Sharma generally avoided involvement in public media media.
Many fans urged Bumrah to focus less on what commentators and former players say, and instead focus on staying uninvited and delivering to India. Others went further and headed for his stunning returns in the Asian Cup.
Bumrah was far from his best in the Asia Cup campaign. His performance against Pakistan in Super 4 came under control after admitting 45 runs in four breaks. However, Bumrah recovered well and in his second Super 4 competition on Wednesday in his second Super 4 competition he released effective performance against Bangladesh. A fast pitch will be the key to the hope of India to obtain the title of Asia Cup. Men Suryakumara Yadava will receive Pakistan in the finals on Sunday 28th September.
