Most cricket followers across the world are well aware of Jasprit Bumrah’s accuracy with the ball. Be it with a new ball in red-ball cricket or final overs of T20 games, the Indian ace-pacer delivers for the side or franchise he plays for, and he is quite calculated about the deliveries he wants to execute and does his research on the opposition and batters beforehand. The lesser-known side, which his Indian team, Axar Patel, has revealed about his teammates’ knowledge of perfumes.

“Jassi bhai ke pass hi collection…abhi woh itna deep chalagaya kitna per cent oil atha kitna per cent perfume atha hein…hum tho udhar tak pahuche nehi hein…hum tho (smells hand and laughs) hum kadak hein karke nikhal jathe hein (Jassi has collection…he is now so deep into them he sees the percentage of oil and percentage of perfume we just see if it is strong or not and use it),” Axar said on 2 sloggers’ YouTube channel.
When asked by one of the YouTubers in the show if it was a post-retirement plan, Axar laughed and said, “Jassi Bhai dekhlena, partnership kardena (Jassi involve us also in partnership),” Axar said.

In a meme shared on the channel, Axar tells Arshdeep Singh how he won a bet against Jasprit Bumrah, and the fast bowler gave Axar a perfume and explains to the viewers and YouTubers what it’s all about.
Revealing about the story in the show, Axar said. “Jassi bhai ne Siraj ko vadha kiya tha ki mein tumko perfume lake dunga jab West Indies ke sath Test match tha Delhi mein unke vice captain Jomel Warrican karke nehi hein usne shayad pucha hoga chalte chalte acha konsa perfume hein smell arahi hein usne jabardasthi usko dedo na usko pasand aya karke usko dilwa diya. (Jassi promised Siraj that he would give him a perfume, and then, after the Delhi Test against the West Indies, their Vice Captain Jomel Warrican might have asked him what perfume it was, and then Siraj said to give him, he liked it and made sure he got it.)”
Tho isme meine sirf (Does sign of putting on fire) flow flow mein Boom bhai bole ab uske jagah mein tume dunga. (Then I got involved and in flow, Bumrah told me he would give me too.)
