WHEN Rohit Sharma and Jos Buttler walk out for the toss at Providence Stadium, Guyana, it all might feel like a deja vu. After all, the same two captains went up against each other in the semifinal of the previous edition of the T20 World Cup. England cruised past India and went on to win the title in 2022.
Two years have gone by and during this period, a lot has changed but at the same time, not much has changed, especially for India. Their personnel have largely remained constant. Same captain in Rohit, same keeper in Rishabh Pant. Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya were there and so were Axar Patel and Arshdeep Singh. While Shivam Dube had been added to the team, the differential point is the return of Jasprit Bumrah. The numbers are out there to see and there is no adjective, analogy or metaphor that can do justice to how much Bumrah elevates India's bowling attack on the field.
