19 innings, 840 runs, 2 hundreds, 46.66 average in games with Hadlee and Imran. Ok, explain to me technically what Bumrah does differently than them which Viv won't be able to handle.

again, you have to learn, Viv failed the "easy" assignments, he never failed the tougher ones.
Bumrah just built different.

You're just trolling at this point.
Took you long enough...... Ftr, I do think Bumrah will get Viv just here. Bumrah's action is a bit freaking, can swing and seam the ball in both directions and has staggeringly good accuracy. By style, not better or worse, but he's definitely different to Viv. I think Viv will do like Smith does. He has pretty numbers and few fine innings, but surely no one thinks he won the bouts.

Bumrah is a good man, he'll gift Root another 4 hundreds this summer, but it doesn't mean you act like he'd dominate The Infallible smh

Which bats historically have a game that can do well against Bumrah then?

Thommo, don't think is freaky enough. Ftr, not saying freak action is the dealsealer here. Think Bumrah is better suited than Imran to Viv. Imran's biggest strength afterall was reverse swing. Bumrah is better with the conventional new ball.
