Jasprit Bumrah recovered from a back stress fracture that had prevented him from playing since September 2022. In the run-up to the World Cup, he had a great comeback to international cricket, highlighted by a winning series against Ireland.
The Mumbai Indians speedster was the cornerstone of the Indian bowling arsenal throughout the World Cup, which turned out to be a key element in the team’s success. In every game he participated in, he got wickets consistently, demonstrating his ability to perform well under duress.
Bumrah was one of the tournament’s leading wicket-takers with an amazing 14 wickets across 11 games. He was able to showcase his skill in the powerplay as well as the death overs. He had an excellent economy rate, averaging 18.65, and his greatest results were 4/39.
Throughout the competition, Bumrah bowled four maiden overs, demonstrating his command of the ball. In addition, he topped the records for bowling with the most dot balls. This demonstrates his capacity to put pressure on the other team.
India’s World Cup voyage to the final, when they met Australia on November 19, 2023, was greatly aided by Bumrah’s efforts. Along with veteran pacer Mohammed Shami, he formed the core of India’s bowling outfit, with Shami emerging as the leading wicket-taker in the tournament. Together, they enabled India to go on an incredible run that saw them win ten straight games and go to the final.

Unfair on Boom Boom.
Hardik was already a successful captain for Gujarat Titans.
It could have been a win win for both with Hardik Pandya captain of Gujarat Titans and Jasprit Bumrah of Mumbai Indians but the powers that be wanted this to be a Saas Bahu drama soap ??????

Bumrah is not happy it seems. Captaincy?
Hardik Pandya came, SKY is also there
When Deepak Chahar gone for 14Cr he laughed and he might have gone for higher price if MI released him instead of Hardik Pandya in that auction

What is cooking inside bumrah ???

Look like Bumrah is upset with Mumbai Indians franchise. He deserves to be captain of MI after Rohit but MI has given captaincy to the player who make fun of Mumbai Indians last year

Chin up, champ! Your exceptional performance speaks volumes. There's no need to feel disheartened; you bowled incredibly well. ?.
