no batsman can hit real good yorkers until he plays scoops

You can hit by going deep into the crease or move across like Richards. I remember in one of the match which i watched live, where Carl Hooper literally exposed all 3 stumps glided a pitch perfect yorker from Akram for 4. He just beautifully handled the yorkers from Waqar and Wasim. He helped WI win a :tie match" based on then rules.

with right field placement, it is not easy to hit boundaries on a good yorker.

17 in one over used to be a big ask in those days

Winning margin was only 7 runs without any big hit. So i guess one six could had turned the match

Bumrah is being mentioned with some absolute greats. Good on him, he should strive to get better..to keep at this level.

And thats mentality similar to our neighbour

yup Bumrah definitely is up there because he is bowling in T20 era.

Apart from the video posted above of the famous Sachin heroics in hero cup, didn’t he almost pull

off a similar heist against Inzamam?

 

Probably the greatest clutch last over bowler :proud:

not sure what you mean by that, But Bumrah needs to do what he does for much longer to be considered comparable with great bowlers with Mgrath or Wasim - sheer load of wickets and games at the least.
