Jasprit Bumrah Sheds Light On MS Dhoni And Virat Kohli's Leadership Styles

The young Team India sensation Jasprit Bumrah will return to action after a long injury lay-off when India begin their campaign starting from January 5 (Sunday). The Men in Blues will lock horns with Sri Lanka in the three-match Twenty20 Internationals beginning at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati.

Bumrah has been down with a lower back injury since the series against West Indies right after the World Cup. Although he didn’t undergo surgery, but Bumrah went through a long recovery process to regain full fitness. The management also took a steady approach and didn’t risk with their No. 1 pacer with the ICC T20 World Cup looming large.

Speaking on the eve of the 1st T20I in Guwahati, Jasprit Bumrah threw light on leadership styles of MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli. While Dhoni has led India to three ICC titles, under Kohli’s leadership, India have been dominant in the last few years.

“Both of them are pretty similar in the way that they want you to take ownership. They give you the field you want, the help you need. You take responsibility for your own bowling,” Jasprit Bumrah told Hindustan Times.

Meanwhile, Virat Kohli is yet to win an ICC title as India bowed out of the ICC World Cup losing out to New Zealand in the semifinal. With the ICC T20 World Cup lined up in Australia, Kohli will look to bring home the title.
