Bumrah expressed his thoughts on more and more\u00a0bowlers leading cricket teams in modern cricket and termed them &#8216;smart ones&#8217;.\u00a0  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>Bumrah is India&#8217;s vice-captain in red-ball cricket and has captained the team in the absence of designated skippers. Speaking to the Indian Express, the premier pacer said bowlers need to think smart as they &#8216;can&#8217;t hide behind a bat\u00a0of a flat wicket&#8217;. He praised the successful bowlers <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/pat-cummins\" rel=\"noopener\">Pat Cummins<\/a>, Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis\u00a0and Kapil Dev\u00a0who shone in their captaincy roles at the international level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel bowlers are smart people because they have to get the batsmen out,&#8221; Jasprit Bumrah said. &#8220;Bowlers have to do the hard job and are not hiding behind a bat, they\u2019re not hiding behind a flat wicket. We\u2019re right in the firing line. When we lose a game, it\u2019s usually the bowlers who are blamed. So it\u2019s a hard job.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019ve seen Pat Cummins doing really well. When I was a child, I\u2019d seen Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis as captains. Kapil Dev has won us a World Cup. Imran Khan has won a World Cup for Pakistan. So bowlers are the smart ones.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The 30-year-old Bumrah also shared his experience playing under India&#8217;s last three captains <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/rohit-sharma\" rel=\"noopener\">Rohit Sharma<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/virat-kohli\" rel=\"noopener\">Virat Kohli<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/ms-dhoni\" rel=\"noopener\">MS Dhoni<\/a>. He said Dhoni gave him a log of security during his early stages in international cricket and added Virat pushed him in terms of fitness. He lauded Rohit for showing empathy for the bowlers.\u00a0    <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Rohit is one of the few captains who has empathy towards bowlers, despite being a batter,&#8221; Bumrah said further.\u00a0&#8220;He understands players\u2019 emotions, and knows what a player is going through.\u00a0Rohit is not rigid, he is open to feedback. MS Dhoni\u00a0gave me a lot of security, quickly. He has a lot of faith in his instinct, and doesn\u2019t believe in a lot of planning.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Virat\u00a0is energy-driven, passionate, wears his heart on his sleeve. He pushed us in terms of fitness, and changed the narrative that way. Now Virat is not the captain, but he is still a leader. Captaincy is a post, but a team is run by 11 people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/bowlers-are-the-smart-ones-jasprit-bumrah-demands-more-leadership-roles-for-bowlers-2024-08-17-947428\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : GETTY Jasprit Bumrah with Rohit Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin during a Test against England in Hyderabad on January 27, 2024 The star Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah explained why bowlers are good options for leadership roles in cricket.
