Honestly, I was tired. There was no joy. I become fatigued after bowling on the pitch for a long time. I’ll jump about as I’m not 21-22. I rarely do that. I enjoyed contributing. Other than that, I wanted to return to my mark and bowl the following ball “said.

I’m glad to be on the Honours board, but discussions will continue. The cameras are numerous. Even during practice, there are several cameras. The era of views and subscribers. I know everyone wants to produce something amazing. Things happen without my control. Only via toh achi baat hai.
Hopefully they’ll bless me for watching them. I don’t consider those. If you wear this jersey, you’ll be judged. Every cricketer experiences that. As long as I’m on TV, judgements will come. Obviously, professional sports involve that. Your daily performances will always be judged. Sachin played 200 Tests and was evaluated. So everyone judges. So it is, Jasprit Bumrah said.
