“The opposition has been trying to fire him, but he’s too good a pitcher to take them down. If you look at the firings of Stoinis and Shikhar Dhawan in the last game, they were just beaten by absolute beauties, ”Gambhir told ESPNCricinfo.

“So even if you try to play him, but like Rashid Khan, he would beat you on defense, he would beat you on the outer edge. It will hit you on the inside edge. So you have to choose it, ”he added.

“You have to have good enough technique to survive. A good ball, in any format, is a good bowl. So even if you try to play him, he has a lot of quality to get you out on defense. It’s exactly like Jofra Archer too ”, he further said,

MI will play Delhi Capitals in the 2020 IPL final in Dubai on Tuesday. Bumrah and DC pacemaker Kagiso Rabada are tied in a race for the Purple Cap.
