You can see it in how the crowd reacts to him and how the Aussie batters seem to know that every ball will challenge them in some way or the other. It could be a set-up, it could be a problem solver, it could be something outrageous.
But here's the thing — at the same time, the Aussies also know that if they can get through Bumrah, or somehow play out his over, there are runs on offer. As things stand, India are pretty much a one-man bowling attack.
Bumrah has taken 18 wickets in the series so far. The other Indian bowlers combined have taken 22. To understand why this is not helping India, look at Australia's numbers — the pacers are sharing the workload. Mitchell Starc has 13, Pat Cummins has 11, Josh Hazlewood has 6 and Scott Boland has 5.
This means that while the pressure is always on India's batters, it isn't quite the case for Australia. And, it would perhaps be okay if Bumrah was desperate to have some of his team-mates stand up and be counted. But for the moment, the India vice-captain is being very understanding.
