The eight Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise are sweating it out in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), preparing for the upcoming tournament, which is all set to start from September 19. The opening encounter will be played between previous season’s finalist Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians.

Looking at the video, one can say Bumrah did a fair job imitating the action of Lasith Malinga, Munaf Patel, Mitchell Starc, Kedar Jadhav, Amit Mishra, and Anil Kumble. However, these are our assumptions and it can vary from person to person.
