As per Bumrah, fans do not realise the the fact that the kind of hard work put in the by the fast bowlers to bowl at a good face in subcontinental conditions and that he will always put the pacers ahead.
“I know the answer that you are searching for but I would like to say my name because I am a fast bowler,” Bumrah responded to the question.
“I’ve been playing for a while. Being a fast bowler and playing in this country in the heat takes a lot of requirement. So I’ll always promote fast bowlers and always take their name,” Bumrah added.
Bumrah gave a hint that he was going to take the name of Virat Kohli who is considered as one of the fittest cricketers in the world. Fans on social media castigated Bumrah who did not take part in a lot of tournaments due to injury, while Virat Kohli played the most of them.
