Test Cricket Is King, Helps In Developing My 'art Of Taking Wicket': Bumrah
ICC World Test Championship: India ace fast-bowler Jasprit Bumrah expressed that to his generation of players, "Test cricket is King" and credited red-ball format for developing his "skills and art of taking wickets", adding that "Test cricket will find a way" to survive in the future as the format is currently struggling in front of a congested cricketing calendar.
"I am of that generation where Test cricket is king. I will always judge myself on it. Yes I started with IPL but I learned to bowl through first-class cricket; that’s where I developed my skill, the art of taking wickets. In Test cricket you have to get the batsman out and that challenges you as a bowler," Bumrah told The Guardian.
"T20s, ODIs, some days you might send down five slower balls and get five guys out, when in a Test match they wouldn’t have taken one. There is no luck in Test cricket, the better team wins, you cannot take 20 wickets through luck. I was never happy with just white-ball cricket and Test cricket is still the utmost format for me.
