Jasprit Bumrah has made a flying start to his international cricket. Since making his debut in Australia, Bumrah has grown leaps and bounds. He is a go-to bowler for the Indian Cricket Team in the death overs.
The Gujarat pacer has impressed one and all in his short span with the national team by taking 45 wickets in 29 matches. Bumrah knows that he cannot survive in international cricket by being a one trick pony.
“You cannot be successful by just bowling Yorkers. Nobody can bowl six out of six yorkers,” Bumrah said. “So you have to mix your pace. You have to bowl bouncers, mix up the pace. In practice, I don’t only bowl yorker.”

Bumrah has an impressive record in the limited-overs format so far, but he is yet to make his debut in the whites.
“I don’t think about selections. Wherever I am playing I try to focus on that,” Bumrah insisted. “I am always focussing on things I have to do in a match. I try to focus on how the wicket will be and what I need to do.”
“If I get a chance it will be dream come true. I always believe in taking it match by match,” the Indian pacer concluded. “Right now my focus is Ranji Trophy.”
