‘Can we clone five Bumrahs?’ Rahul Dravid jokes about India’s bowling maestro to explain artificial intelligence’s role in cricket

Former India head coach Rahul Dravid looks hopeful that artificial intelligence will play a huge role in the future, particularly in injury prediction and other important aspects, making decision-making easier.

Adding to this, he emphasised that AI will only be beneficial if it does not replace the human element in the sport. Dravid, who participated in the AMFI Mutual Fund Summit in Mumbai, spoke about how new technologies can be integrated into cricket but should not replace human roles.

    Jasprit Bumrah after his back injury, as that would take away the ‘fun’ and ‘uniqueness’ of the sport. According to Dravid, maintaining a balance between human roles and data analysis will help push the game forward.

    “Can we clone five Bumrahs or something? I mean, I’m just saying that, but that wouldn’t be fun either, right? I mean, what would be the fun in that, right? Where’s the uniqueness then?” Dravid said at a Mumbai event on Saturday, as quoted by PTI.

    “I think maybe leave sport alone for a bit and we don’t want to get AI too involved in sport. There’s got to be that human element to it. There’s got to be a level of uniqueness to sport. So, that would be my wish really that we’d never get to a point where we are… It becomes easy,” he said. “Bumrah is unique because it’s so hard to do what Bumrah does.”
