VIRAT MIGHT BE HERO, ROHIT MIGHT TAKE PLAUDITS, BUT INDIA'S CHEAT CODE BUMRAH DESERVES THE ACCOLADES

As the biggest match-winners for the last one-and-a-half decade, the onus again fell on two of India's biggest match-winners- Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma- to deliver and take India to the finish line. The dazzling duo explicitly produced what was expected from them in the T20 World Cup 2024. However, there is another player who arguably outshined Kohli and Sharma in Team India's historic journey in the competition. Jasprit Bumrah has been exceptional throughout the tournament. The pacer took 15 wickets in the tournament and bowled at an unbelievable economy rate of 4.17. Yes! You read that correctly. In the eight T20 games that Team India has played in the T20 World Cup 2024, Jasprit Bumrah has not been cumulatively hit for 5 runs per over. For this unparalleled performance, he has been handed the Player of the Tournament award.

Jasprit Bumrah played the foremost role in Team India's T20 World Cup 2024 win

Cutting out a calm and composed figure in every match, Jasprit Bumrah has steamrolled each of the opposition that came in front of him in the T20 World Cup 2024. He undisputedly emerged as Team India's most reliable weapon in the tournament. In the India vs South Africa final as well, he came back to the attack when everything was seemingly lost. The Proteas needed 24 runs in 24 balls and the Men in Blue were heading toward another defeat in a World Cup final. Bumrah changed the course of the game from that position, giving away just 6 runs in his final two overs, picking up the wicket of Marco Jansen in the process. He brought the other bowlers back in the game as they had 20 runs to protect in the 19th and 20th over. Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya pitched at the right spots and did their job perfectly as India won the match by 7 runs.

Much like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah also deserved a World Cup. He has certainly played the foremost role in the attainment of glory and deserves every iota of the praises he has been receiving. Moreover, following a performance after performance after that, Jasprit Bumrah has unquestionably made it to the best white-ball bowler debate.
