Former England fast bowler Steven Finn praised Bumrah and said that he is one of the best players in the world. He said, “Jaiswal scored a brilliant 161 runs, but Bumrah’s performance was worth watching. He is the best player in the world, there is no one like him at the moment.”
‘Jasprit Bumrah is a joke’
Finn said, “Honestly, it’s just a joke. You see him bowling and you think I am happy that I don’t have to tie pads. He is such a bowler looking at whom I feel that I should not need to bat.”
Describing India’s victory as special, Finn said, “It is not easy to win in Perth. Although, this is not WACA, but a new stadium, still it is a big deal to win against Australia there. It was a brave performance for India.”
