Ahead of IPL 2020 opening, Mumbai Indians took to Twitter to share an exclusive video of Jasprit Bumrah bowling to Chris Lynn on the nets during practice.
The video started off with screenshots of Chris Lynn's tweets expressing his excitement for IPL 2020 and his relief that he wouldn’t have to play against Jasprit Bumrah given the two ace cricketers are on the same team. It was followed by a tweet from Bumrah, who in a tongue in cheek tone, reminded his Mumbai Indian teammate that he would still have to face him in the nets during practice.
The video shows Lynn facing a confident Bumrah on the nets and struggling for runs. Mumbai Indians are set to go up against the Chennai Super Kings on September 19 in the first match of the IPL 2020 season.
