Jasprit Bumrah missed almost a year of cricketing action as he was recuperating from a back injury. However, since his comeback in the series against Ireland in August, the right-arm pacer has looked in fine rhythm and is currently spearheading the Indian bowling attack in the ODI World Cup 2023.
“I don’t really look at it as pressure or responsibility because as a child I wanted to be a cricketer. I wanted to play for India. I wanted to do the difficult job. I wanted to make my team win. So that is what I’m doing,” Bumrah told ICC Digital Insider after India’s triumph over Pakistan.
“I’ve learned a lot over the years. I tried to use my experience, I’ve played a lot in this country. So you use my experience and try to help the team as much as you can because if you think about pressure and expectation and responsibility, you won’t be able to perform with that baggage of expectation,” the Gujarat pacer added.
