According to the former Australian skipper, Bumrah stands out for his ability to dominate in all three formats of the game, regardless of the conditions, and called him a “freak” bowler.

This guy's a freak: Michael Clarke on Jasprit Bumrah
I know a lot of great fast bowlers, Curtly Ambrose and Glenn McGrath; they didn't get to play T20 cricket, so I'm not talking about those guys, but in regards to anyone who has played all three formats, I think he might be the best ever. He's actually that good in any conditions; that's what makes him great: any conditions, any format—this guy's a freak.”
