MS Dhoni gave me lot of confidence on debut, reveals Jasprit Bumrah

MS Dhoni shook Indian cricket when he announced his retirement from international cricket on August 15, in a Dhoni-esque manner, taking to the Instagram to disclose the big news. Most of the current Indian players have some fond memory or the other with the former Indian skipper, MS Dhoni as they more or less, started their career under his able leadership. 

"I told him 'in death overs, I don't know what else to do'. So, anyway, I went ahead and did my thing and then he came to me and was like "I didn't know this at all. You should've come earlier, we would've won the whole series". Here was me, making a nervous debut and the captain telling me "you could've won us this series". He gave me a lot freedom,"  Bumrah told Times of India.

The right-arm paceman recalled how wickets are hard to come by even when you are bowling to the best of your abilities. But, now he has learned that you need to be patient and keep doing the right things and then the results finally come. 

"Even in Australia, it was the same. In certain situations, I thought I was bowling well. At Perth, for instance, I felt it was the fastest that I ever bowled. I felt like was bowling at 155, 158. But in Perth, I did not get a lot of wickets. So, what had 2018 taught me - just keep doing to the right things, sometimes things will click, sometimes you'll have to wait longer. Results will come. In fact, I remember saying this in the press conference after the Perth Test that it was probably the best I had every bowled then, even if the wickets didn't come as expected. Wickets came in the next Test, at MCG. In hindsight, I bowled better at Perth, I got better results at MCG. At the end of the day, your account will get tallied," the 25-year-old said.
