Sundar Pichai’s Witty Response To Jasprit Bumrah’s ‘Google It’ Remark, Elon Musk Joins The Conversation

Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah’s recent comment “Google it” grabbed the attention of Google CEO Sundar Pichai and billionaire Elon Musk. The tech leaders responded to Bumrah’s now viral “Google it” comment he made during the third Test between India and Australia.

During the conference, the journalist questioned Bumrah about his batting skills in the Test series against Australia at Gabba. But when the journalist asked Bumrah about his assessment of the Indian batting unit under tough conditions, Bumrah gave a witty reply that quickly went viral on social media.

Bumrah’s “Google it”

On Day 3 (Sunday) of the third Test, replying to a reporter who asked Bumrah about his assessment of the Indian batting unit, the Indian pacer gave the best answer. The journalist asked,

“What is your assessment of the batting, although you are not the best person to answer the question, but what do you think about the situation of the team, considering the conditions in Gabba”

Bumrah replied,

“It is an interesting question. But, you are questioning my batting ability. You should use Google and see who got the most number of runs in a Test over. But, jokes apart. That’s another story”

For the unversed, the ace pacer Bumrah holds the record for the most runs in an over in Test cricket. He scored 35 runs in a single over.

The third Test between India and Australia ended in a draw due to the storms in Brisbane. It left the Border Gavaskar Trophy locked 1-1.
