Jurel said in an interview with former India cricketer Aakash Chopra on YouTube: “It was a car. I purchased a Hyundai Verna when I came back after playing in the U-19 World Cup. The majority of the money was spent on my sister’s marriage, and then on the down payment of the car.”

He concluded: “Virat. He knows what he needs to say to trick someone. He knows what the body language should be, and how he should throw. He always throws in a way that it passes near the batter to get him out of his zone. So many things to learn from him. Everyone just looks at him when he is on the field.”
