Bangar emphasized, "I think there is a difference of 50 runs. Without Jasprit Bumrah, you have to put 230-240 runs on the board, and with Jasprit Bumrah, I think somewhere around 180 will be quite challenging for Australia."

Praise was given by Bangar for Bumrah's resilience as well as the tactical approach employed by the Indian team following the injury scare.

After leaving the field for scans, Bumrah later returned showing no visible signs of discomfort.

Notably, Bangar remarked on Bumrah's composed body language, which played a crucial role in keeping the Australian team in suspense.
