We could boggle your mind with the numbers that Jasprit Bumrah has ratcheted up through our time period—as 2018's highest wicket-taker, India's highest wicket-taker in the World Cup, the fastest Indian pacer to 50 Test wickets and the third Indian to bag a Test hat-trick--but former West Indian great Andy Roberts sums up this 26-year-old phenomenon best. "Wish we had him," says Roberts, a member of the fearsome Caribbean fast-bowling quartet. While Bumrah played limited cricket in the second half, first due to workload management and then a stress fracture, he would be raring to hit the ground running as he eyes a comeback in January-February.
