IND vs SL, 1st T20I: Jasprit Bumrah will be seen in a new role, Rohit Sharma told ‘Great opportunity
Rohit Sharma Press Conference
Captain Rohit Sharma said, “To be honest, it doesn’t matter much whether it is the vice-captain bowler or the batsman. It is the mind that Jasprit Bumrah as a player has a good mind for the game.
I have seen it up close. This is a good way for him to step into a leadership role now. For him, he has taken his game to the next level. I am sure he wants to continue to do so in the future as well.”
Rohit Sharma also said, “But it’s only going to give him more confidence in whatever he wants to do on the field. He enjoys being the vice-captain of the team for this particular series. Let’s hope everything goes well. I know him closely and have talked to him a lot about cricket.”
