Irfan Pathan commends Jasprit Bumrah\u2019s commitment to Test cricket post back surgery, asserting that the longevity of the format thrives when teams have dedicated bowlers like him.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have fallen in love with Jasprit Bumrah\u2019s attitude, especially the way he has bowled after back surgery. He is not only an inspiration for Indian cricket but also for world cricket,\u201d Said Irfan Pathan.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
In the recently concluded two-match series against South Africa, Bumrah made an impactful return to Test cricket after his surgery. The unconventional seamer claimed 12 wickets, emerging as the highest wicket-taker in the series.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you are prioritizing red-ball cricket even after surgery, you won\u2019t get a bigger brand ambassador than him in bowling. If every country gets a bowler like Jasprit Bumrah, Test cricket will keep flourishing.\u201d Irfan added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
In the first Test at Centurion, Bumrah took four wickets in South Africa\u2019s only innings. Although his performance in the initial innings of the second Test in Cape Town was less prominent, he staged a remarkable comeback in the second innings, securing figures of 6\/61 and contributing to India\u2019s successful dismissal of the hosts for 176.<\/p>\n
