Tim Southee Praises Jasprit Bumrah’s Resilience and Skill

New Zealand‘s veteran fast bowler Tim Southee has lauded Jasprit Bumrah as the best bowler across all cricket formats today. 

According to Southee, Bumrah’s ability to excel in T20s, ODIs, and Test cricket sets him apart from other bowlers. 

He highlighted Bumrah’s exceptional return from a career-threatening back injury that kept him out of the game for 11 months.

Southee expressed admiration for Bumrah’s comeback, noting that he has returned even stronger and more formidable than before.

 “To be able to firstly bounce back from the major injury and come back, he’s even better than what he was beforehand. 

Throw in on top of that, having to juggle multiple formats, can be difficult at times as well,” Southee stated.

This acknowledgment from one of the sport’s most respected figures underscores Bumrah’s remarkable talent and work ethic.

Bumrah’s Impact in the T20 World Cup and Beyond

Bumrah was instrumental in India’s triumphant T20 World Cup 2024 campaign, where he claimed 15 wickets at an astonishing average of 8.26, with an economy rate of just 4.17. 

His exceptional performance was a key factor in India lifting the trophy, and it reaffirmed his status as one of the most lethal bowlers in the world.

In addition to his T20 heroics, Bumrah has been a cornerstone of India’s bowling attack in ODIs and Tests. Last year, his contributions were crucial as India reached the final of the ODI World Cup.

Southee emphasised that Bumrah’s brilliance is evident across all three formats, making him a rare talent in modern cricket. 

“We are just seeing a great version (of Bumrah) across all three formats. He’s brilliant across all three at the moment,” Southee added.

Looking Ahead: The India vs. New Zealand Test Series

Cricket fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming three-Test series between India and New Zealand, where Bumrah and Southee will face off once again. 

The series, set to begin on October 19, will take place in Bengaluru, Pune, and Mumbai. 

This will be another opportunity for Bumrah to showcase his skills and further solidify his reputation as the best all-format bowler in the world.
