Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah has made his intentions clear stating that his retirement from the T20I format is "very far away".
Bumrah clinched his first ICC World Cup trophy after India's success in the T20 World Cup final against South Africa in Barbados.
The astute pacer took advantage of his best form and put up a memorable campaign for both himself and the Indian team.
After India's World Cup campaign ended on a fairytale note, three of India's stalwarts bid adieu to the T20I format.
India captain Rohit Sharma, stalwart batsman Virat Kohli and ubiquitous all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja announced their retirement from the shortest form of cricket. However, Bumrah stated that his retirement will not come soon.
"(My retirement) is very far away. I have just started. Hopefully, it is very far away now," Bumrah said during the felicitation at the Wankhede Stadium.
His influential performance helped India end their 13-year wait for an ICC World Cup title. Bumrah rattled the opposition batsmen, conceded runs at an economy of 4.17 and finished the tournament as the third highest wicket-taker of the tournament, with 15 wickets to his name.
After India was crowned champions of the T20 World Cup, tears of joy filled the faces of every player. For Bumrah, the presence of his son Angad made the moment emotional for him as well.
"It was unreal. Usually I'm not the one speechless, but seeing my son, the emotions that come up. I never cry after the game, but I started crying and I cried two, three times," Bumrah noted. .
In the group stage, he single-handedly helped India beat arch-rival Pakistan. In the final, Bumrah again defended the Rohit-led team when they found themselves in a desperate situation.
When 30 runs were needed from the remaining 30 deliveries, hopes and nerves were waning in the Indian camp. The ball was handed to Bumrah, and out of the five overs, he bowled two and swung the momentum in India's favor by conceding just six runs and taking the wicket of Marco Jansen.
