New Zealand captain Tim Southee and former Australia captain Ricky Ponting have both praised Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah for his remarkable return from injury and his exceptional performance across all formats. Southee highlighted Bumrah's enhanced skills and experience, noting his dominance in Tests, ODIs, and T20s. Ponting called Bumrah the best multi-format bowler of the last five to six years, comparing him to legends like Glenn McGrath and James Anderson. Despite past injury concerns, Ponting emphasized that Bumrah has come back stronger, showcasing his skillset and consistency, particularly during India's T20 World Cup triumph where he took 15 wickets. Both cricket legends agree that Bumrah's versatility and resilience make him a nightmare for batsmen globally.
