The Indian cricket team's fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is counted among the most dangerous bowlers not only in the country but also in the whole cricketing world. His pace, yorkers, and accurate line length have troubled the opposition batsmen at times and taken India out of difficult situations. But even outside the cricket field, there has been a big change in Bumrah's life, which has further enhanced his game. That is to become a father.
Recently, Bumrah's wife and famous sports anchor Sanjana Ganesan spoke about this change in Bumrah's life in a podcast. He said that after the birth of his son, Angad, Jasprit Bumrah has become a better person. Earlier he was just a great player, but now he has become a responsible father and emotionally strong person.
She said,
"When you have a quiet and loving home, you are able to perform even better on the field. When Jaspreet comes home and sees his son Angad, the relief on his face gives him new energy.
The impact of this change on Bumrah's game is clearly visible. Last year, he took a total of 86 wickets in all three formats (Test, ODI, and T20), which is considered a big achievement for any bowler. Apart from this, he also played a key role in India winning the T20 World Cup 2024. His fitness, mental balance, and understanding of the game have become better than before. Sanjana believes that family life has given Bumrah a new perspective on life. Now he goes on the field not just as a player, but as a father, a husband, and an inspirational personality.
Jasprit Bumrah and Sanjana Ganesan got married in the year 2021. The two dated each other for about a year and a half, on 4 September 2023, their son Angad was born. Angad is often seen supporting his father in the stadium with his mother. Now that India is preparing for the big Test series against England, all eyes are on Bumrah's bowling.
