Wicket got better for batting but we didn’t panic: Jasprit Bumrah
India were bowled out for 119 after Pakistan opted to field first. The start of the game was considerably delayed due to rain. When it eventually started, the conditions were overcast and the Pakistan pacers found enough movement to trouble the Indian batters. However, as the sun managed to make an appearance, there wasn’t much swing on offer. Bumrah, who finished with excellent figures of 3/14, lauded the Indian bowling unit for not panicking even as the conditions got a little better for batting. The Men in Blue restricted their arch-rivals to 113/7 to win their second game in a row in the marquee event.

“It was a good day. The wicket did change after a while because the wicket that we played on last time had a lot more help. But in the morning, it was overcast and then later on the sun opened up and you know the wicket did dry up. So, it did get better to bat on. So, it was slightly better to bat on so the seam and the swing was less but yeah, we are very happy that we were able to pull that off with you know constant pressure, trying to be clear with what we want to do and try to make runs scoring difficult,” Bumrah said.
“So very happy that you know we were together and we were very clear, we never panicked at any stage. So that is a great sign for us going forward as well,” he added.
