Dhoni picks his favourite player

Former Indian skipper MS Dhoni has made a huge revelation by naming his favourite player, picking Jasprit Bumrah over the likes of superstars Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been a relentless performer for India over the past few years, consistently delivering stellar performances with the ball.
With the ability to provide breakthroughs at crucial times, Bumrah has been a linchpin in India's bowling attack across all formats. Most recently, Bumrah played a crucial role in India’s title victory at the T2I World Cup 2024. His performances with the ball were crucial in guiding India through challenging matches.
"Current favorite, it’s easy, since Bumrah is there. It becomes difficult with batters because we have so many good batters, but that doesn’t mean bowlers are not good. Just saying, it is difficult to pick. Whoever I watch batting, it feels great as if he is the only one, but then somebody else comes and he appears to as brilliant. However, as long as India is doing well, I do not want to pick. Hopefully, they keep scoring runs," Dhoni said while speaking at an event.
Team India’s upcoming task is the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka beginning Friday in Colombo.
