As their son turns one, the couple took to Instagram to share a post. They wrote:

“Our pride and joy, our son, our little superhero is ONE!”

Bumrah was instrumental in India’s victory at the 2024 T20 World Cup, earning the Player of the Tournament award. In the final, he delivered a stellar performance, taking two wickets for just 18 runs in his four-over spell, helping India secure a seven-run win over South Africa and bring glory to the nation.

Overall, the right-arm pacer took 15 wickets in eight matches, with an average of 8.26 and a superb economy rate of 4.17, helping India clinch their second T20 World Cup title.
