With 319 international wickets for India at an average of 22.48, Jasprit Bumrah is one of the best pacers for India. His best bowling show of 6/19 in England proves that he is a gemstone on overseas soil too. With Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah is also the only bowler to grab the top salary purse (Grade A) by BCCI.
However, since last year, a back injury has kept Jasprit Bumrah out of the field. He was absent from Asia Cup 2022, ICC T20 World Cup 2022, and also the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023. In his absence, many other bowlers have impressed with their stellar bowling attack for Team India. Here we talk about 5 better pacers than Jasprit Bumrah who deserve a place in the Indian cricket team.

5 Better Pacers Than Jasprit Bumrah Who Deserve A Place In Indian Cricket Team
5. Umran Malik
Umran Malik is the first player on this list. Although in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, Umran Malik has got many opportunities in recent series. However, the right-arm pacer is not a permanent pacer for the team currently. After he emerged as expensive in the shortest format, he was not given many chances last year.
However, in the recent ODI and T20I series, the right-arm pacer gave a decent performance. In 8 ODIs and 8 T20Is, the Indian speedster has hunted 13 and 11 wickets respectively. His ODI average is 27.31 and his T20I average is 22.09. After such a good start in 8 games each in both white ball-format so far, he is a better pacer than Jasprit Bumrah who deserves a chance in all three formats on a permanent basis.
