Boom Boom at the World Cup

That's why Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who passed through this good fortune, said after winning the final in Barbados on Saturday, "I feel like I've reached the moon." India defeated South Africa by seven runs in the final and won the Twenty20 World Cup title for the second time.

In a way, the finale was ups and downs. In the final sometimes India looked strong and sometimes South Africa. But in the end the victory was in the name of India. "In the final, I tried to keep myself as calm as possible. It is for such modes that we play cricket. I had worked hard for such success. In this case, whenever the success

happens in one's own name, the experience is different," he said. Why was he really chosen as the best player of the tournament? The answer is easy. He took 15 wickets in the entire tournament, at a rate of 8.26 per wicket. His 'economy rate' was 4.17. That's it, incredible performance. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to choose the best player of the tournament.

India's performance throughout the tournament was strong. India did not lose a match. However, South Africa won all the matches before the final. But in the end, India fully deserved the title. Not only in the first round of the tournament, but also in the Super-eight, India's performance was beyond reproach. The contribution of India's special players was There was one, Bumrah. He bowled very sparingly. None of the rival batsmen could score runs in his bowling. When someone bowls the way he does in T20 cricket, the victory goes to his team and not to others.

A player like Bumrah must abide by the basic rules of cricket. That said, there should be a balance between the batsman and the bowler in cricket. But in recent times, the batter has started to dominate in Twenty20 cricket. Bumrah broke the illusion that this is always the case through this World Cup. Regarding the

tournament, he said, 'We are playing for such a high occasion. The big day should be done big. Throughout the tournament, I played with focus on the game. Whenever I am bowling, my focus is on one ball only. Sometimes in cricket emotion can overcome performance. I used the length ball more in the final as well. So I also got a reverse swing. I am happy that I was able to contribute to the team's victory.'

To return to the same final again, India was under extreme pressure when the South African innings touched 18 overs. In a way, the game was out of India's hands. Just then, captain Rohit Sharma remembered Bumrah. The way he bowled Marco Janssen in that over was beautiful. Janssen wanted to block the ball defensively, but he didn't realize his 'gate' was open. It was there that Ball kissed Bel sweetly. Perhaps an even better ball came against South African opener Reza Henrique, in which the batsman had no idea where the ball was coming from and was bowled. It is considered the sweetest "dismissal" of this World Cup.

Bumrah has to be praised for his journey so far. Former bowler Kapil Dev is also among those who have openly praised his performance in recent times. Maybe he was a bit too emotional, that's why he said, 'Bumrah's bowling is a thousand times better than me.' Whenever we talk about Bumrah, the first thing that comes to the fore is his bowling style which looks very unnatural. His style is not like a typical fast bowler. Rather very different and that's what makes him special. He does not take long run-ups like many other fast bowlers. He can reach the crease in a short run. Meanwhile, it looks like trying to jump a bit too much.

He accelerates the ball with the help of his hands. He has a little more flexibility in his elbows. He can also swing his fists very far back. His arms and legs appear to be in a straight line when throwing the ball accurately. For this reason, when he bowls, the opposing batsman is in a dilemma as to how the ball will come. He often bowls outside the off stump. Usually a short length ball. But there is also a big problem here, sticking to this style of bowling means getting injured again and again. Bumrah's bowling style is said to put more 'stress' on his lower back. So some even advise him to change his bowling style.

And because of this, Bumrah has to work harder to keep himself 'fit and fine'. If he were to change his bowling style, he might not be the bowler he is now. As accurate and deadly as the biggest he is now, it's highly unlikely that he won't. So the old legendary fast bowler of West Indies Kurtley Ambrose has advised, the way Bumrah bowls, it should be maintained, not changed. Yes, Bumrah needs to work a little harder to avoid injuries. And he has done this. That is why he became the best player in the T-20 World Cup in America and the Caribbean region. And whenever such an opportunity comes, everyone says, 'Boom Boom Bumrah'.
