Delhi: Great Australian cricketer Allan Border believes that Jasprit Bumrah has the potential to become the best captain of the Indian team. Bumrah captained India for the first time in the Edgbaston Test against England in 2022, in which the team had to face defeat. But, after this, Bumrah won the first Test under his captaincy, when India defeated Australia by 295 runs at the Optus Stadium in Perth.
‘Build a stadium on the border for India-Pakistan’, a strange suggestion from Pakistan’s Virat Kohli.
First foreign captain to win test in Perth
With this victory, Bumrah became the first foreign captain to win a Test at Perth Stadium. He took eight wickets in this match. For this brilliant performance he received the title of “Player of the Match”. Praising his captaincy, Allan Border said that Bumrah applied himself to the bowling at the right time and also showed a lot of wisdom in arranging the fielding.
Allan Border praised Bumrah
Border said while talking to The Times of India, “Bumrah will prove to be a very good captain. He acquitted himself well in Perth. “In terms of captaincy, he made no mistakes in field settings.”
The Australian veteran said, “Bumrah is different and special in today’s times. His wrists and way of releasing the ball are completely different from other bowlers. Due to his hyperextension, the ball is bowled about a foot ahead of the other bowlers. His run-up and wrist snap make him even more dangerous. With these qualities it becomes very difficult for the batsman to play him.”
