Zahoor Khan reveals Jasprit Bumrah bowling secret: Jasprit Bumrah, who did not play the first match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 due to illness, performed brilliantly in the remaining matches. A former Pakistani cricketer has made a shocking revelation about the bowling of Jasprit, who gave Team India both victory and trophy with his sharp bowling in difficult matches (semi-finals and finals). According to the Pakistani pacer, Jasprit Bumrah has learned to bowl slow balls from him. Pakistan-born and UAE bowler Zahoor Khan has created a sensation in the cricket world by making this shocking claim. He says that he has helped Jasprit Bumrah in improving his slow balls.

UAE bowler Zahoor Khan says that he helped Jasprit Bumrah in improving his slow balls. In a video going viral on social media, Zahoor Khan is seen saying that during the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2019, he had taught Jasprit Bumrah to bowl slow balls without making any changes in his bowling action. Zahoor also told that he was a net bowler with Mumbai Indians in the UAE League. During this time, Jasprit Bumrah had talked to him on bowling technique. Zahoor told that at that time Bumrah used to bowl slow balls, but he helped the Indian star to develop his technique.

In the video, Zahoor Khan says that earlier Jasprit Bumrah used to bowl slow balls, but his action was normal. Giving an example, he said that in a match in Abu Dhabi, Jasprit Bumrah gave a lot of runs to Trent Boult and Nathan Coulter-Nile. IPL was taking place in September that year. The temperature in UAE in September is 50 degrees. In such a situation, you cannot even hold the ball properly at night because it becomes wet.

Fulfilled the promise…

Zaheer Khan and Robin Singh know me because I bowled maiden overs in the T10 league. I bowled the first yorker and the next five balls were slow. Everyone was sitting together. Meanwhile, Bumrah came and sat in front of the table. After this I told him that I will tell him about such balls. Shane Bond was the bowling coach of Mumbai Indians. Mahela Jayawardene was standing behind the nets. During this time he came and hit a slower bouncer. It beat the batsman. Bowled two-three slow balls on the instructions of Shane Bond. On this he told Jayawardene that this is a new thing in cricket.

‘Paaji, what is your grip…’

He also said that look how well he bowls slow balls. In the same action and arm speed. A few days later, when I was bowling with Bumrah. So he said, Paaji, what is your grip, show me. After this Jasprit Bumrah bowled and said that this is something of the next level. I mean, I’m a UAE player now and he’s a world-class bowler so I really liked it.
