The former Australian legend Bradman is known for having an astonishing Test average of 99.94, and he has his own league of excellence in terms of batting. Well, Gilchrist believes that Bumrah is carving out a similar legacy with the ball, setting himself miles apart from his contemporaries across all formats.

With searing pace, surgical precision, and an uncanny ability to adapt in any condition, Bumrah’s performances are becoming a benchmark for excellence. His recent exploits in the five-match Test series in Australia, where he was the leading wicket-taker with 32 scalps at a mind-boggling average of just 13, were yet another example of the Indian pacer’s unmatched skill.

Gilchrist signed off by saying, “A seamer from India, consistently throughout, particularly the series that we just saw in the summer, back home in the Australian summer? No, I don't think so.”
