Honestly guys, I keep seeing people argue about Jasprit Bumrah’s actual height online everywhere – forums, comments sections, you name it. Different sites spit out different numbers, and it was annoying as hell. I’m the kind of person who needs facts, you know? So yesterday afternoon, totally bombarded with this curiosity, I decided to settle it once and for all myself.
Starting Simple Then Digging Deep
First off, I pulled out my phone like any normal person would. Googled “Jasprit Bumrah height feet”. Bam! Instant confusion. I saw listings like:
5 feet 11 inches? Wait… Some said 6 foot even? But another one said 5 foot 10? What the actual heck! This wasn’t gonna cut it. These sites couldn’t even agree on basics.
Next stop? Official sources. Headed straight to the Board of Control for Cricket in India website. Searched player profiles. Found his name. Clicked… and seriously? His profile page was totally blank in the height field! Useless. Major facepalm moment.
Time for heavy lifting. Grabbed my laptop. Dug into cricket archives:
- Checked IPL franchise pages – Mumbai Indians listed him at 178 cm, which converts to around 5 feet 10 inches.
- Scanned ICC player records – again, same thing, consistent listings at 178 cm or 5’10”.
- Looked at cricket news articles quoting team sheets or physio reports – majority pointed towards that 178 cm figure.
Seeing is Believing? Visual Proof Time
Okay, stats say 5’10”, but I wanted to see it. Found pics and videos of him standing next to other players where the heights were solidly known.
For example:
- Photo with Virat Kohli (listed almost everywhere as 5’9″ or 175cm). Bumrah clearly stood an inch taller in every side-by-side shot.
- Another with Hardik Pandya (listed around 6’0″ or 183cm). Pandya noticeably a couple inches taller.
Watching clips from games, the height difference against these players consistently matched what the stats suggested.
Finally Nailing It Down
After digging through stats sites, team listings, visual comparisons, and official player registries that used verified metrics, the pattern was crystal clear. All reliable sources converged on one number:
Jasprit Bumrah’s height is 178 cm. And converting that for my fellow feet-and-inches folks? That means 5 feet 10 inches. Period.
Sometimes the simplest facts need the most annoying legwork to confirm. Don’t trust random forum chatter. Get the info straight from the horse’s mouth – or in this case, the cricket boards and actual visual evidence!
