Jasprit Bumrah delights fans with latest image after transparent shorts incident
Jasprit Bumrah decided to stay inside the water and capture a photo in which his body was well covered much to the delight of cricket fans this time around.
Jasprit Bumrah's learning ability is known to everyone and even the likes of Lasith Malinga have showered praise on the Indian fast bowler. During last year's Indian Premier League (IPL), Malinga had said that when he met ‘Boom’ for the first time in 2013, he was a young kid. He had pace, but the only thing lacking was accuracy.

He learned everything quickly — be it the slower ball, in-swinger or out-swinger. He has that confidence and that’s why he is No. 1 now.

The incident happened in August when the Men in Blue were touring the Carribean for a Tests series. What Bumrah did not realise that the shorts he was wearing were “see-through” and Twitter users claimed that they could see “everything”.
