Some cricketers give you numbers. Jasprit Bumrah gives you something harder to measure. The silence of a batting side that has just understood the game is over. He may be the Bradman of bowling. Not in one aspect of the craft, but in every aspect simultaneously. The execution, the thinking, the reading of a game, the bending of a match to his will across every format, every phase, every opposition. This is a series about what that means. And why we may not fully understand what we are watching until it is gone.
