Jasprit Bumrah, a bowler for Premier India, won the player of the series after an outstanding trip against Australia. Bumrah’s incredible seam bowling performance was carrying the Indian team. The battle between the two squads was heated at several points. One such infrequent instance occurred during the match when the speedster, who is typically regarded as having a composed manner, got into a verbal altercation with the young Australian starter, Sam Konstas.
Interestingly, the incident happened in Sydney during the fifth and final Test match. At a recent event, Bumrah talked candidly about the altercation and suggested that the public may have misunderstood what the players had said to each other during the game.
“Main to usse puch raha tha ki’sab theek hai?’ Pada nahi isme to aapko kuch aur lag raha hoga. Ghar par sab theek hai, mummy theek hai? The key question I posed to him was, “Is everything okay?'” I’m not sure what you folks are thinking. “Is your mother okay? Is everything at home okay?” Bumrah was cited by Indian Express as questioning.
“Acha theek hai ab ball daal deta hoon” is the maine bola to “haan theek hai.” Aap logos are difficult to understand and interpret. I believe that the phrase “udhar” may be misinterpreted. I replied, “Now, I’ll bowl,” to which he replied, “Yes, it’s fine.” It must have meant something different to you people. I believe there might have been some misunderstandings due to the absence of terminology. These kinds of incidents occur during close games,” the 31-year-old said.
