India Has Upper Hand Over Pakistan: Gundappa Viswanath

Gundappa Viswanath also elaborated on how Jasprit Bumrah bowled brilliantly in the last match and how Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are getting runs in the tournament.

“Our bowlers have done well. Returning from injury, Jasprit Bumrah has bowled superbly in the last two games, and now that he picked up four wickets against Afghanistan, it will give a lot of confidence not only to him but also to the other bowlers.”

“In the last game, Rohit scored a brilliant hundred, and Kohli is always getting runs, and once Shubman Gill returns, it becomes a much more solid Indian batting unit. Everything put together, India has the advantage,” Vishwanath concluded.
