Bumrah's Rare Off Day Explained
Uthappa, a T20 World Cup-winning batter, suggested that Bumrah’s rare lackluster performance was due to his impatience to make an immediate impact on the game. Speaking on Star Sports, he observed that this urgency caused Bumrah to lose some of his usual discipline.
"When we were bowling after scoring 125, the start was very important. If we had picked up two or three wickets in the first three or four overs, the game could have been closer because we have quality spinners in the middle overs. I felt we were probably trying too hard to pick up wickets. So we got a little wayward."
