IPL 2024: 'Want To Make An Impact Early On When The Ball Does Something', Says Bumrah
Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket: After Mumbai Indians edged Punjab Kings by nine runs in a thrilling IPL 2024 clash at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on Thursday evening, fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah said his aim is always to make an impact with the new ball, citing it as the time when the ball does some movement.
Bumrah took out Rilee Rossouw and Sam Curran in his first over, before taking out Shashank Singh to pick 3-21 in his four overs, which was instrumental in keeping PBKS away from chasing 193. Bumrah, now the leading wicket-taker in IPL 2024 with 13 scalps in seven matches, was adjudged as Player of the Match.
"Of course, you want to make an impact early on when the ball does something. Because in this format, probably the ball does swing for the first two overs. When I want to bowl more, I do play Test cricket.
