In the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, He is the key and experienced bowler for team. He rely on swinging the ball to unsettle the batsman rather than pace. His 4 overs would definitely be something that everyone wants to be done right. He always keep his calm even if the things are not going as per his way. Rohit Sharma would be expecting him not only to restrict the batsman in power-plays but also in slog overs, his excellence and performance would be an elixir to the men in blue.
