The former cricketer expressed his admiration for Bumrah, drawing parallels between the Indian pacer's unique skills and Akram’s mastery.“I would hate to face him. He is like Wasim Akram. For me, he is a right-hand version of Wasim Akram, and every time I am asked the question, ‘Who is the best bowler you have ever faced’, I say Wasim Akram,” said Langer.The 54-year-old’s comments highlight Bumrah's ability to swing the ball both ways, his remarkable accuracy, and his tenacious competitive spirit—qualities reminiscent of Akram in his prime.Bumrah’s unconventional bowling action, precision in delivering yorkers, and ability to generate late swing make him a nightmare for batters, much like Akram was during his storied career.In the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia, the right-arm pacer has cemented his reputation as one of the best bowlers of his generation.With 21 wickets in three matches at an astonishing average of 10.90 and a strike rate of 25.14, including two five-wicket hauls, Bumrah has been the backbone of India’s bowling attack.His standout performance of 6/76 further underscores his dominance.Bumrah's rise as a modern-day great draws inevitable comparisons to Wasim Akram, widely regarded as the greatest left-arm pacer in cricket history.Akram’s ability to outfox batters with late swing and searing yorkers is mirrored in Bumrah’s approach.Meanwhile, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is delicately poised at 1-1 after the third Test ended in a rain-affected draw.India, led by Jasprit Bumrah, claimed the opening Test with a commanding 295-run victory, while Australia responded with a 10-wicket win in the second match.The decisive fourth Test will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) from December 26-30.
