Taking to Twitter, BUmrah posted some pictures of this year and wrote, “2019 has been a year of accomplishments, learning, hard work and making memories, on the field and off it too. And on the last day of the year, I’m looking forward to everything that 2020 has to offer!” 

Bumrah emerged as India’s go-to bowler in all the three formats of the game in 2019. He played a crucial role in India’s maiden Test series win in Australia and during the two-match Test series against the West Indies, he became only the third Indian to take a hat-trick in red-ball cricket after veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh and pacer Irfan Pathan.

The right-arm pacer has so far represented India in 12 Test matches, 58 ODIs and 42 T20 Internationals in which he has scalped 62, 103 and 51 wickets respectively.

The fast bowling spearhead has also been included in the ODI squad for the three-match series against Australia, which will take place after the T20Is against Sri Lanka.
