New Zealand fast bowler Trent Boult amused his Mumbai Indians (MI) teammates during a light-hearted moment at MI’s training session by attempting to imitate fellow Kiwi Mitchell Santner’s bowling action. The result, though, was a wildly inaccurate delivery that drew a witty comment from Jasprit Bumrah. “That’s why we should stick to fast bowling,” Bumrah commented in a video posted by MI on social media.
