Jasprit Bumrah’s Dominance in International Cricket
Jasprit Bumrah is regarded as the best bowler in international cricket, according to former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar. During India’s opening Super Eights match of the T20 World Cup against Afghanistan, Bumrah delivered an outstanding spell, taking 3 wickets for just 7 runs. His exceptional performance helped India secure a 47-run victory. Manjrekar highlighted Bumrah’s superiority over other international bowlers, stating that India is extremely fortunate to have such a talented player in their team.
Anil Kumble’s Praise for Bumrah
Former India captain Anil Kumble also praised Bumrah’s performance. He emphasized Bumrah’s deep understanding of his own bowling, which was evident when he dismissed Rahmanullah Gurbaz with a perfectly executed slower ball. Kumble pointed out Bumrah’s ability to plan and execute strategies for each batsman, which is a rare skill. This level of precision has allowed Bumrah to limit boundaries throughout the tournament, showcasing his exceptional control and skill as a bowler.
Suryakumar Yadav’s Impactful Batting
Suryakumar Yadav played a crucial role in India’s victory by scoring a quick 53 runs off 28 balls, helping India reach a total of 181 for eight in 20 overs. Manjrekar praised Suryakumar’s ability to handle tricky pitches and top bowlers like Rashid Khan. He noted that Suryakumar’s strength lies in his ability to play ground shots and place the ball in gaps, rather than always going for sixes. This skill makes him a valuable asset to the team, as he can consistently score runs without taking excessive risks.
Kumble on Suryakumar’s Form
Anil Kumble highlighted the importance of Suryakumar Yadav regaining his form in the Super Eights. He mentioned that Suryakumar’s ability to play powerful strokes and score boundaries puts immense pressure on opposing bowlers. Kumble noted that Suryakumar’s presence in the lineup adds significant strength to India’s batting order, especially when he is in good form. This makes it challenging for opponents to contain him, as he can score freely and disrupt their bowling plans.
Overall, both Bumrah and Suryakumar’s performances were instrumental in India’s success in their opening Super Eights match, setting a strong foundation for their campaign in the T20 World Cup.
