The popular Bollywood actress, Disha Patani has showered praises of the premier Indian fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah. The actress called the speedster a proven match-winner. She was recently in the studio of the official broadcaster ahead of India’s fifth T20I against New Zealand at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui.

Disha was there to promote his upcoming movie ‘Malang’ with the rest of his co-stars. Bumrah ended up bagging the Player of the Match as he finished the game with the spell of 3 for 12 in the final T20I. Over the last couple of years, he has become one of the deadliest fast-bowlers around the world and the actress lauded him for his contributions.

As per the quotes in Times Now, Disha said, “If I had to pick a match-winning player, it would be Jasprit Bumrah. He is one of the finest players we have. It will be a proud moment for all of us on February 2, while Bumrah takes down the Kiwis.”

Ahead of the final T20I, Bumrah was having a below-par series. But his stupendous show helped India to a 5-0 whitewash. The seamer made a comeback from a back injury earlier this year and is deemed to be one of the most crucial cogs for the Men in Blue for the T20 World Cup in Australia.

In the meantime, Anil Kapoor, the veteran Bollywood actor, was also present with Patani in the studio. He didn’t mince any words in saying that the Indian skipper, Virat Kohli stands out from the rest. He said, “Virat Kohli is ‘sabka (everyone’s) boss’! His passion steals the game from any opponent. The Malang cast will celebrate India’s victory, post-match.”

He is now set to lead the national team in the three-match ODI series, which is scheduled to commence on Wednesday, February 05. The first game will be played at Seddon Park in Hamilton.
