Travis Head on Jasprit Bumrah
After the match, Australia’s attacking batter applauds India’s captain, Jasprit Bumrah. “I think there were 15 people really pleased that Bumrah didn’t bowl today. He’s a great performer, he had an exceptional tour.” said Head. “Bumrah’s performance is the best individual performance I have seen” he added.
Talking about the Indian Team, head looked optimistic. “They played exceptionally well, even in Perth they put us on the backfoot. Been a crazy five Tests, the guys that got through all five are probably looking forward to some time off. They have a lot of players that play well.” he concluded.
