Pakistan chief selector Aaqib Javed has made a bizarre comparison between Jasprit Bumrah and controversial spinner Usman Tariq. In a press conference, the former Pakistan cricketer claimed that Bumrah was 'not a normal bowler' and said that he was 'a fast bowling version of Usman Tariq'.
Pakistan chief selector Aaqib Javed has triggered a massive debate on social media. Javed hailed India's Jasprit Bumrah as one of the most difficult bowlers to face in the modern era. He said that Bumrah was 'not a normal bowler' and had a different action.
He then bizarrely compared Bumrah to current Pakistan spinner Usman Tariq. Trying to explain his point, Javed said, "Woh Fast Bowlers Ka Usman Tariq Hai."
“In today’s era, across this entire World Cup, there is only one bowler like that - Bumrah. Because he is different. He is not a normal bowler. Even his action is unusual," Javed said in a press conference.
Bumrah finished the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 as the joint-highest wicket-taker with 14 wickets alongside Varun Chakravarthy. He delivered his best bowling figures, picking up 4/15 in the final against New Zealand at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
