Indian ace fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah was recently seen in an interview and a video went viral over the net. In the interview, he was asked who had been his toughest-ever opponent to bowl at and he replied quirky with an answer.

Bumrah is often widely regarded as the greatest ever to have stepped on the field in this modern era of cricket which has been largely ruled by batters. In an era comprising of legendary batters who have made invincible records, Bumrah has been one of the most terrifying names for them.

Bumrah is regarded as one of the greatest multi-format bowlers and he has often been named so by several cricketers as well who have lauded his excellence.

The legendary past bowler has been on a break since he was last seen for India in their victorious T20 World Cup campaign in the United States.

He was recently seen making a public appearance at one of Chennai’s universities, and he received a huge welcome worth the standards of a national hero as he won the World Cup for India.

It was at this event that the host questioned him on who would he rate as the toughest ever opposition he has bowled to. To it Bumrah replied by saying there is no batter in the world who can get the better of him right now.

Though some said this sparked his over-reliance on his abilities, Bumrah clearly stated that his prime focus is to not let any batter enter his head, and that lets him perform to the best of his abilities against any world-class batter.



“I want to give a good answer. The real factor is I don’t want anyone to take over me in my head. I respect everyone, but in my head I tell myself that if I do my job well that there is nobody in the world that can stop me. I look at myself rather than the opponent. I have control over everything and If I give myself the best opportunity, everything else will take care of itself,”

said Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah has been likely reported to be dropped for the Bangladesh series as well, as he might be looking to make a comeback in the New Zealand home series before India travels to Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Bumrah was last awarded the Player of the tournament in the T20 World Cup.
