India's bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, hailed as a "once in a generation" talent by his teammate Virat Kohli, has expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming love and support the team has received since their triumph in the T20 World Cup.
Bumrah's exceptional performance throughout the tournament, culminating in India's victory over South Africa in the final, earned him the prestigious 'Player of the Tournament' award. His 15 wickets, many of which came at crucial junctures, played a pivotal role in India's second T20 World Cup title and their first in 17 years.
In a heartfelt post on social media, Bumrah expressed his joy and gratitude for the outpouring of appreciation. "I am so thankful for the last few days. I've been living a dream and it has filled me with happiness and gratitude," he wrote.
During the felicitation ceremony at the Wankhede Stadium, Kohli delivered a rousing speech praising Bumrah's contributions. "What I would like everyone to do is to applaud a guy who brought us back into games again and again and again. It was phenomenal. He is a once in a generation bowler. I am so glad he plays for us," Kohli said.
In the final, Bumrah and Hardik Pandya orchestrated a remarkable turnaround for India. Their game-changing spells ensured that South Africa fell short by seven runs, despite needing just 30 runs from the remaining 30 deliveries.
Bumrah's exceptional skills and unwavering determination have made him a cornerstone of India's bowling attack. His ability to swing the ball both ways, generate pace, and execute yorkers with precision has made him one of the most feared bowlers in world cricket.
As India celebrates their T20 World Cup triumph, Bumrah's performance will be remembered as one of the key factors in their success. His "once in a generation" talent and unwavering commitment to the team have earned him the admiration and respect of fans and fellow players alike.
