Bumrah’s prowess extends beyond T20Is to ODIs and Tests. Former Pakistan skipper Ramiz Raja hailed him as a “legend in all three formats.” Ramiz Raja’s admiration for Bumrah came after an old video of India’s new head coach Gautam Gambhir surfaced online, where Gambhir emphasized the importance of having players excel in all formats.
