The Life Story of Jasprit Bumrah: From Struggles to Stardom

His early life was marked by hardship—his father passed away when Jasprit was just seven years old. Raised by his mother, Daljit Bumrah, a school principal, young Jasprit grew up with modest means and big dreams.

As a child, Bumrah wasn’t groomed in elite academies or trained under star coaches. His bowling action, now iconic and unorthodox, developed naturally—an adaptation of playing in limited spaces without formal training. His unusual sling-arm action and raw pace made him stand out early on, even if it puzzled coaches at first.

Bumrah’s big break came in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in 2013 when he impressed playing for Gujarat. But it was the Indian Premier League (IPL) that changed everything. Spotted by John Wright, the former Indian coach and then Mumbai Indians scout, Bumrah was signed by Mumbai Indians and made his IPL debut in 2013. 

From being seen as just a T20 specialist, Bumrah worked relentlessly on his game. He made his India ODI and T20 debut in 2016 in Australia and quickly became a reliable death-over bowler. Then came the turning point: his Test debut in 2018 against South Africa. Critics doubted whether his action and bowling style could adapt to red-ball cricket. He silenced them all. Bumrah picked five-wicket hauls in South Africa, England, Australia, and the West Indies, becoming the first Asian bowler to do so in a calendar year.

Despite injuries and workload pressures, Bumrah remained India’s bowling spearhead. His yorkers, slower deliveries, and calm presence made him India’s most dependable bowler under pressure.
