IPL 2024: 'He Is Surely In A Different League Right Now', Zaheer Hails Bumrah
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former India left-arm fast-bowler Zaheer Khan lauded Jasprit Bumrah for his superb spell of 5-21 being one of the key pillars in Mumbai Indians’ seven-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru, saying the ace pacer is in a different league right now.
It was a match at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday evening, when all bowlers were taken to the cleaners consistently on a sticky pitch, barring Bumrah, who is now the leading wicket-taker in IPL 2024.
"He’s been superb. He’s in great rhythm. You see the execution of the yorkers, the slower ones, the bouncers. It shows how much time and energy he puts in, in terms of understanding what’s the situation of the game, what conditions he is playing in, which batters he will bowl against and what are the best options. He is also realistic about how others are trying to analyse him. He surely is in a different league right now," said Zaheer to JioCinema, the official streaming partner of IPL 2024.
