In the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024–25, India is currently playing Australia. Following the first Test match in Perth, where the Indians, headed by Jasprit Bumrah, triumphed by 295 runs, the situation has become bleak for the visitors. The senior pacer has been the only player to appear to be in fine touch with the ball throughout the series.
Bumrah, meanwhile, took the initiative to fix the team’s bowling problems. Along with mentioning that their bowling team is presently going through a transitional phase, the star pacer also talked about the assistance and support he can provide to the inexperienced lineup in order to help them evolve into a stronger unit. As the series progresses, the 31-year-old pacer also shared his thoughts about the team’s dynamics and the duties they are assigned.
We are in transition as a bowling unit, as I mentioned, thus it is my responsibility to assist the others. I am attempting to help them because I have played a little more than they have. However, once more, everyone will grow, learn, and ultimately discover new paths. That’s the path you’ll have to take,” he said to reporters on Monday.
In a more light-hearted vein, the Indian vice skipper was also questioned about his thoughts on their batting performance so far in the series. Bumrah joked that the media should look at his batting statistics, which show that he hits the most runs in an over in Test cricket.
It’s an intriguing query. You’re doubting my ability to bat, though. Google should be used to find out who has run the most in a test over. But enough about jokes. “It’s a different story,” he answered.

Jasprit Bumrah supports Mohammed Siraj.
Out of the complete bowling attack, Mohammed Siraj has received the most criticism for his erratic line and lengths, which continued to be a problem as the Indians were unable to capture wickets at regular intervals, in addition to his on-field antics. Bumrah continued to support his bowling partner, nevertheless, because of his perseverance and team-oriented play style.
“He was bowling well and has taken a good number of wickets.” Although he had a minor niggle during this game, I believe I’ll give him credit for continuing to bowl and supporting the team since he knew that if he went inside and didn’t bowl, the team would be under pressure. Therefore, I believe he has a fantastic mentality and a fighting spirit that the team adores,” Bumrah said.
