Jasprit Bumrah credited him for his dream comeback, winning the special award almost as soon as he arrived.

Jasprit Bumrah, who is returning to the cricket field after 327 days, had a great comeback. Taking two big wickets from the hosts in the very first over, Team India took the lead in the match. For any fast bowler, making a comeback after being out of the team for almost 11 months is not as easy as Bumrah did. He credits his success to the team staff who always kept him in a good mood. Let us tell you that Team India won the rain-affected first T20 by 2 runs with the help of DLS to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. Captain Bumrah was the hero of India’s win and was awarded the Player of the Match.

After the match, Jasprit Bumrah said, ‘It felt great, I did a lot of sessions at NCA, it didn’t feel like I had lost much or was doing something new. Credit goes to the staff, they put me in a good mood. You are not thinking about yourself, you are thinking about others. Not really nervous but very happy. Swing was initially available so we want to use it. Luckily we won the toss and everything went well. Due to the weather, there was some help, so I am very happy.

He continued, ‘Every game you want more. Played well after a bad start, take credit where it’s due. Even when you win, there are areas to improve. Everyone is very confident, they are very well prepared. I think IPL helps too. It’s always good. The fans support us everywhere we go, which helps us keep our morale high.
