“Gave me a lot of security” – Jasprit Bumrah comments on playing beneath MS Dhoni’s captain

MS Dhoni was India’s captain of white balls in when Jasprit Bumrah made his first international appearance with the national side during their tour of Australia in 2016.

Bumrah remarked that Dhoni provided him a lot of confidence while recalling his first game. Before the tour, the bowler was also candid about being anxious. During a segment of the Express Adda show on The India Express, Bumrah had these words for Dhoni:

“He (Dhoni) gave me a lot of security quickly. When I came to Australia, I had just taken a flight and I didn’t know anyone. How do you talk to MS Dhoni first time? You are suddenly playing a game and not practiced with the team. He is one of the guys who has a lot of faith in his instincts and doesn’t believe in a lot of planning.”

Jasprit Bumrah will miss the upcoming three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka in India. The 30-year-old has been granted break from the team management.
