South Africa bound senior Indian cricketers KL Rahul and Jasprit Bumrah indulged in a fun banter during their reunion at a recent training session in Mumbai.

Taking to his Instagram account, Rahul shared a short video of his training routine where he came across his teammate Bumrah. The two senior men even countered each other at the nets for a while as they braced themselves for India’s high-profile ODI and Test tour of South Africa later this month.

During their interaction, Rahul cheerfully predicted that Bumrah would soon be talking about how hard a bowler’s life is in comparison to batters. Much to the amusement of Indian cricket fans, his estimate came true a few moments later when the Indian speedster called out his batting teammate for having it “easier” on the field.

KL Rahul and Jasprit Bumrah’s cheerful banter

During their high-intensity training in Mumbai, Indian batting stalwart KL Rahul faced Jasprit Bumrah in the nets in a bid to prepare for team’s ODI and Test assignments in South Africa.

Rahul even predicted how Bumrah would soon go on a rant about bowler’s lives being more difficult than batters, which eventually came true when the speedster jokingly called out his teammate. Their interaction went as follows:

KL Rahul: “I can guarantee you Bumrah is going to tell how hard a fast bowler's life is.”

Jasprit Bumrah (a while later): “Your job is easier to bat, hide behind a bat.”

KL Rahul: “What did I tell you? Did I not call it?”

Both Jasprit Bumrah and KL Rahul recently turned up for India at the 2023 World Cup, before distancing themselves from team’s T20I series against Australia at home.

The two cricketers will now be making their respective returns to competitive cricket with fixtures in South Africa. While Rahul will be leading the Indian team in ODIs and feature as one of the senior members in the two-match Test series, Bumrah will be joining the camp specifically for the red-ball format later this month.
