Bumrah said that Virat Kohli is still the leader even if he is not the captain.
The Rohit Sharma-led Indian team won the ICC 9th T20 World Cup series held in West Indies and USA. So India won the T20 World Cup after 17 years. Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is seen as the most important reason for India’s success.
Because he bowled brilliantly throughout the series. In this series, he had taken 15 wickets and conceded very few runs. Because of that he was declared as the hero of the series.
He made his debut in the Indian team led by Dhoni in 2016 and bowled following a different action. Because of that, there were criticisms that he could not succeed in the tough Test cricket, which was amazing in white ball cricket.
But Bumrah, who made his debut in Test cricket under the leadership of Virat Kohli in 2018, challenged the opposing batsmen and emerged as India’s winning hero. Since then, he has been challenging the opposing batsmen in all 3 types of cricket and has been giving India many victories.
In this case, Bumrah has talked about the Indian captains MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma who helped him grow to this extent.
Bumrah spoke about it as follows:- “Rohit Sharma is one of the few captains who sympathizes with the bowlers even as a batsman. He understands the emotions of the players and knows what a player is going through. Rohit Sharma is not too strict. He is open minded and ready to listen to the bowlers.”
MS Dhoni gave me a lot of protection and support. He always trusts his instincts more. Dhoni doesn’t always believe in over-planning.
Virat Kohli is eager to lead the way with energy. He turned us on to fitness. Virat Kohli is still the leader even if he is not the captain. Captain is just a title. Because only 11 people run a team,” he said.
