While speaking at the interview, Bumrah expressed, “I was tired, I thought the last wicket was there, I tried to push to bowl fast. I went up to him (mid-over), asked ‘Are you OK?’ and didn’t get a good response. So that brought back some young memories; of trying to be the nice guy and it not being taken well. And it triggered the whole team. It was red mist but it was channeled”.

It’s one thing to have helpful conditions but to keep doing all that preparation. Skill and technique can be learned but the will to keep going, that’s a big tick for me,” the India star bowler Bumrah ended.
