‘India is so fortunate to have him’: Former India cricketers laud Jasprit Bumrah | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: Star pacer Jasprit Bumrah‘s exceptional performance, taking 3 wickets for just 7 runs in a four-over spell, led India to a commanding 47-run victory over Afghanistan in their Super Eights T20 World Cup opener at the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown in Barbados on Thursday.
Former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar highlighted Bumrah’s superior class among world cricket pacers, emphasizing the significant difference between him and other international seamers.

“There were many matches when we had not conceded the boundary and look at the difference between him and the couple of other seamers,” Manjrekar remarked.

“They were also international standard, but quite rightly I mean, he’s looking even better and when you look at all the top-class bowlers around the world. There’s a big margin between them and Bumrah and India is so fortunate to have him in your playing 11,” said Manjrekar, as quoted by PTI through ESPNcricinfo.
Bumrah’s skills and precision also drew praise from former India captain Anil Kumble, who noted the bowler’s adeptness in understanding his own bowling strategies.

“The kind of understanding of his own bowling you can make out, even when he got Rahmanullah Gurbaz out on a slower ball and wide line. He gets the execution perfect. For each batsman, he would have figured that out and then doing it right in a big game. This doesn’t come easy and I think he has given limited boundaries in the entire tournament,” said Kumble.
