Is there ever a moment where one could imagine a bowler like Jassprit Bumrah do something apart from nailing a yorker or rattling a batter’s stumps? In particular, could one envision the ace pacer hitting a six out of the ground, or even better, stumping a batter while keeping behind the wickets? Well, the star has done it all and he has spilled the beans ahead of IPL 2026. Bumrah’s revelation is something that MI would be very proud of.
When Bumrah turned into a Dhoni
In a video posted by MI on social media platforms, Bumrah is seen recalling that he had once kept wickets, batted at number 6 and had even recorded a stumping to his name during his days in a university. The ace speedster, who is considered the best all-format fast-bowler for India, made his debut in the domestic circuit in 2013 and then created waves in the international circuit years later after impressive performances in the IPL. Bumrah has been a household name for MI since his IPL debut and is their most-valuable player since then.
“I look like I make biscuits. In another universe. You know, in a college game, for my university, there’s one game where I bowled off-spin, kept wickets, did one stumping as well and I batted at number 6. I did everything You also have, for years, like MS,” Bumrah said.

As per Sportstar, Bumrah seems to have commenced his preparation for the T20 World Cup 2026 already, even though he isn’t a part of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. He paid a surprise visit to the Gujarat College Ground on Monday where Tamil Nadu were playing Karnataka in their round three match of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025/26.The report claims that the veteran Indian pacer bowled a few over in the nets under the supervision of Gujarat coach Hitesh Majumdar.
After sitting out of a couple of Tests in England, Bumrah has been in action regularly over the last few months. He was a part of the Test series against West Indies, following which he played against South Africa in both the Test and the T20I series. The pacer, who sustained a back injury during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the start of the year, spent nearly a couple of months on the sidelines and made his comeback only in IPL 2026. Since then, the Indian team management has been very careful with the bowler’s workload.
