Bollywood star Riteish Deshmukh has found a rare similarity between a 10th century portrait carved in stone and India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah.
The 45-year-old actor took to social media to post a picture of the portrait which resembles Bumrah's unique bowling action. He got the image as a forward on Whatsapp.
Deshmukh, like most Indians, is a massive cricket fan and regularly comes to the stadiums to cheer for Team India.
"A rare 10th century sculpted portrait of @Jaspritbumrah93 (curtesy: Whatsapp University)," the actor tweeted.
