Mumbai Indians Called Me: Zahoor Khan Claims He Taught Jasprit Bumrah Slower Balls
•
Pakistan-born UAE cricketer Zahoor Khan claims he taught Jasprit Bumrah how to bowl slower deliveries in 2019.

Zahoor demonstrated his unique slower ball technique, using the same action and grip, to Bumrah and MI coaches Shane Bond and Mahela Jayawardene.
