India’s cricketer Dinesh Karthik has bestowed high praise upon pacer Jasprit Bumrah, likening him to a cricketing gem more precious than the legendary Kohinoor diamond. Bumrah’s stellar performance during the T20 World Cup earned him the coveted Player of the Tournament award.
Throughout the tournament, Bumrah showcased remarkable consistency, claiming 15 wickets in eight games with an astonishingly low economy rate of 4.17 runs per over. In the high-stakes final against South Africa, Bumrah delivered a crucial spell during the tense closing overs. Entrusted with the ball in the 16th over, he thwarted the Proteas’ aggressive chase, maintaining tight control and denying them crucial boundaries despite not taking any wickets.
