Nic Maddinson and Bumrah

Victoria player Nic Maddinson was seen hilariously imitating Indian Jasprit Bumrah’s bowling action on Monday during the Sheffield Shield final. The video of his bowling was shared by Cricket Australia, and suddenly it became a viral one.

Spearhead Jasprit Bumrah is known for his unorthodox bowling action. In the earlier times of his career, he was under doubt on whether the peculiar action would strain his body or not due to the tough action. But he proved all wrong and came out as one of the most important bowlers of his time. His global reach is such that even Nic Maddison, who is a batter, attempted to bowl ‘The Bumrah’ style.

Nic Maddinson, on the first ball of the 160th over in the final of the Sheffield Shield in Australia, did something different during his run-up with shorter steps. It was a light-hearted moment as the game was heading towards a draw. The batter decided to let the ball go as the ball landed wide.

Here is Maddinson imitating Bumrah’s bowling action:
