Former Pak player Shoaib Malik has heaped praises for Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah for his effective bowling in all three formats of the game.
The podcast interviewer asked about the reasons why the Indian pacer has achieved consistent success to which Malik replied that the likes of Jasprit Bumrah makes positive environment on their own which helps them to deliver consistent performance.
“I think you create your own environment with the help of your positive thinking. When you speak a lot, people tend to take you less seriously. And when you speak less, people starts to take you very seriously. Bumrah is one such person who has created an environment where he is always willing to learn. He also integrated a lifestyle which is required for an athelete…………. Where he stand today (Bumrah), I think its remarkable. How much you praise him, it is less.” Malik said during a podcast with “How Does It Work Podcast”
