Virat Kohli's massive praise for Jasprit Bumrah

Veteran Indian batter Virat Kohli heaped praise on Jasprit Bumrah and his contributions to the Men in Blue's T20 World Cup triumph. He claimed that he was ready to sign a petition that would declare Bumrah a national treasure and the eighth wonder of the world.

Claiming that Bumrah was a 'once-in-a-generation bowler', here's what Kohli had to say to the host broadcaster during the felicitation ceremony at the Wankhede:

"I will sign the petition right now. Let him decide what to do with the schedule. We want him to play as long as possible. He is a once-in-a-generation bowler and we are so glad he plays for us."

Kohli also urged the crowd to chant for Bumrah, reflecting on the pacer's game-changing final two overs towards the backend of the T20 World Cup final. Bumrah ended with figures of 2/18 as India beat the Proteas by seven runs to lift the cup.
