Sundar Pichai’s Extremely Honest Reply: Jasprit Bumrah is proving to be India’s saviour in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy, not just with the ball but also with the bat. Bumrah, who has already picked up 18 wickets in the series, showed his mettle with the bat on the fourth day of the third Test in Brisbane on Thursday as he and Akash Deep put on a crucial unbeaten partnership for the last wicket to help India avoid the follow-on. The partnership perhaps saved the Test match for India. A day earlier, Bumrah had a witty response when asked about India’s batting. He also named tech giant Google in it.
This turn of events drew a response from Google India and Google CEO Sundar Pichai, who is known to be a cricket enthusiast.
Putting this in context, here’s how Bumrah’s conversation went during the press conference after the third day’s play on Monday. A reporter asked: “Hi, Jasprit. What is your assessment of the batting, although you are not the best person to answer this question, but what do you think about the state of the team given the conditions at the Gabba?”
Bumrah: “That’s an interesting question. But, you are questioning my batting ability. You should use Google to see who has scored the most runs in a Test over. But, jokes apart. That’s another story.”
Bumrah had conceded 35 runs in an over from England’s Stuart Broad in Birmingham in 2022.
