 "Jasprit Bumrah")
After Mumbai Indians pacer Jasprit Bumrah achieved a five-for against Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday, he garnered praises from the Indian cricket fraternity for his achievement.
Bumrah registered his career-best bowling figures in the T20 format and ended his four-over spell at 5/10 against KKR, here at Dr DY Patil Stadium, on Monday.
"Once a king, always a king. What a phenomenal spell by @Jaspritbumrah93, Yaha form ki koi chinta nahi hai bhai," tweeted former Indian spinner, Harbhajan Singh.
Meanwhile, Indian spinner Amit Mishra wrote, "There are many ways to drain your energy. One of them is to keep trying attacking a bowler like Bumrah. A proven superstar of Indian cricket once again showed what makes him a trustworthy pacer."
On the other hand, former Indian batter Yuvraj Singh praised the pacer and called him a 'match winner'.
