Glenn McGrath has steered that whereas Bumrah strikes concern into the opposition batters, there must be somebody who’s there to take the load off Bumrah.
“We saw Starc at the end of the IPL. He came into his own, which was good to see. Bumrah just seems to be the one bowler that batters find it hard, even in T20s, to get on top of. So, I think if Australia is to win this World Cup, Starc has to bowl well. A lot of it relies on him. And Bumrah for India, but then it is who’s going to take wickets around Bumrah and who’s going to bowl well around him,” McGrath mentioned on the MRF Pace Foundation floor.
“You got Jasprit Bumrah. He showed just how good he is throughout the IPL. But it is like having a left-right opening combination for batters. It also depends on how they are bowling. In T20s, you do not have much time to be ready. If you take an over or two to warm up, the game is already over. If you have got a good opening-bowling combination, that is where you are going to win matches,” he added.
McGrath feels that Arshdeep may show to be a greater companion for Bumrah compared to Siraj in the course of the match.
