India are locking horns against Bangladesh in the first Test match of the two-match series at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai and ahead of this series all eyes were on Jasprit Bumrah, who made his comeback to Test cricket after a long break of six months.  

As expected Bumrah once again led the Indian bowling with the new ball. He got a breakthrough in the first over itself and later on at the end of the first innings, he finished as his team's highest wicket-taker. 

Jasprit Bumrah's Unfiltered Conversation

After the second day's play, the speedster had an unfiltered conversation talking to JioCinema. The one topic that grabbed the limelight was when Jasprit Bumrah was asked about the young generation trying to copy his unorthodox action. 

The pacer answered the question with a surprising answer. He stated that he does not recommend kids and the upcoming generation to follow his bowling style as it is very much prone to injury. 

"I don't know how to react to that. But you know, when I was a kid, I used to. I was a fan of fast bowling. I learned through watching the television. I fell in love with the sport by that. Now, sometimes when I see children trying to copy my action, I don't recommend it. But you know, sometimes it is what it is. You get inspired by something and you try and find your own way. I'm very happy to create an impact whenever I can," Jasprit Bumrah told JioCinema. 

Reacting to the news that many kids have started to copy his bowling action across the world, Bumrah further added that he fell in love with this game after watching fast bowling, but he does not want the children to copy his action, but instead develop their own that can leave a different impact.
