Earlier in the day, Bumrah was seen giving important bowling tips to young pacer Kartik Tyagi during the net session in Sydney on Wednesday.
Bumrah, who is known for his lethal yorkers, had a chat with Tyagi on his run-up and bowling action and BCCI took to Twitter to share the pics of both the Indian pacers in the nets and captioned it, ‘When you have best in the business to guide you in your journey.’
