Abdul Razzaq retracted his statement that Jasprit Bumrah is a ‘baby bowler’, said this important thing

Pakistan Cricket Team’s all-rounder player Abdul Razzaq had called Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah a ‘baby bowler’ a few years ago. However, now he has retracted his statement. According to Abdul Razzaq, the statement he had given was misinterpreted. I never said that Bumrah is not a good bowler.

During an interview, Abdul Razzaq had said that he has faced many great fast bowlers in his career, hence Bumrah is a baby bowler in front of him. They can score a lot of runs against them.

My statement was misinterpreted – Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah is currently bowling brilliantly in the World Cup and has taken many wickets. On this, an Indian fan asked Abdul Razzaq what he would say now regarding that statement. Razzaq said during a conversation on Geo Super,

My statement was misinterpreted at that time. The question came was how do you see Wasim Akram, Glenn McGrath, Jasprit Bumrah and Shoaib Akhtar. On this I had said that Bumrah is still a baby bowler in front of him. I did not say that he is not a good bowler. He is a baby bowler in front of them. Bumrah is nothing in front of Wasim Akram and Glenn McGrath.

Let us tell you that recently Wasim Akram had also praised Jasprit Bumrah a lot and called him better than himself. Wasim Akram had said,

When Bumrah bowls around the wicket to left-handed batsmen, he bowls the same outswingers as I do to right-handed batsmen. But Bumrah has better control with the new ball than me.
