Best bowler in cricket: Coldplay dedicates song to Jasprit Bumrah in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad: Renowned British rock band Coldplay honoured Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah, calling him "the best bowler in the whole of cricket," during their concert at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday. Bumrah attended the event, and a video of the moment quickly went viral on Instagram.
Chris Martin, the band's lead singer, praised Bumrah's exceptional talent and referenced his remarkable ability to dismantle England's batting line-up.
The 31-year-old has cemented his place as a key player for India with consistent performances across formats. During the recent Australia tour, Bumrah bagged 32 wickets, proving instrumental despite India losing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Bumrah is set to return to action in the third ODI of the upcoming series against England on February 12 in Ahmedabad. His participation in the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy depends on his recovery from a back injury.
A video of Bumrah waving at the crowd during the concert has gained widespread attention.

Iran warns of âuncontrollable consequencesâ after energy site strike
Qatar warns residents of âElavatedâ threat
Tehran/Doha: Iran’s President Massoud Pezeshkian has warned that attacks on the country’s energy infrastructure could lead to “uncontrollable consequences” affecting the entire world.
In a post on X, Pezeshkian said he “strongly condemns” the strikes that targeted the South Pars gasfield earlier in the day.
“Such aggressive actions will not achieve anything for the American Zionist enemy and their supporters. Rather, they will complicate the situation and could lead to uncontrollable consequences that will affect the entire world,” he said.
Meanwhile, Qatar’s Ministry of Interior has urged residents to remain indoors due to what it described as an elevated security threat.
Authorities have not provided further details, but the advisory comes amid growing concerns over the safety of energy infrastructure and civilian areas in the region.
