Mitchell Marsh Shares Humorous 'Bumrah Nightmare' Story After Tough Test Series
The Australian all-rounder recalls his nephew mimicking Jasprit Bumrah's bowling action, adding humor to reflections on his struggles during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
- Mitchell Marsh revealed that his four-year-old nephew imitated Jasprit Bumrah's bowling action during a backyard cricket game, reigniting memories of his struggles against the Indian pacer.
- Bumrah was a standout performer in the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy, taking 32 wickets in five matches at an average of 13.06, including three five-wicket hauls.
- Despite Australia's 3-1 series victory, Bumrah's individual brilliance set records, becoming the Indian bowler with the most wickets in an away series and the most Test five-wicket hauls in SENA countries.
- Marsh had a disappointing series, managing only 73 runs in four matches and being dismissed by Bumrah three times, leading to his exclusion from the final Test in favor of Beau Webster.
- Speaking at the Australian Cricket Awards, Marsh humorously reflected on his form slump and the continued impact of Bumrah's dominance, while expressing gratitude for the support of Australian fans.
