Sunil Gavaskar’s statement regarding Jasprit Bumrah: The Border Gavaskar Trophy series between India and Australia is now over. In this series, the Indian team had to face defeat 3-1. The performance of the Indian team was very poor in the entire series. Apart from star bowler Jasprit Bumrah, no player could leave an impact in the series. Bumrah was seen struggling alone in every match. While bowling, Bumrah did not get much support from the other end. Now a big statement of former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has come out regarding Jasprit Bumrah.
What did Sunil Gavaskar say?
Regarding Bumrah, Sunil Gavaskar said, ‘I think he did what was best for the team. When you have a bowler who can take wickets. Then it can be understood that you are bowling him more than the limit. I don’t think we can blame the team management for this because Bumrah only wanted to do what was good for the team at that time. His back was injured. But Bumrah is a very dedicated cricketer.
Bumrah became ‘Player of the Series’ with 32 wickets
In the last Sydney Test against Australia, captain Rohit Sharma himself had decided to stay out of the playing eleven. Then Jasprit Bumrah was seen captaining the Indian team in this match. Whereas Bumrah did not bowl much in the Sydney Test. Bumrah bowled 10 overs in the first innings. During this period he also took 2 wickets. Due to injury, Bumrah did not come to bowl in the second innings. Which was a big blow for the Indian team. In this series, Bumrah was the highest bowler taking 32 wickets against Australia. Bumrah was also given the ‘Player of the Series’ award for his excellent performance in this series.
