"Becomes Easy For Me To...": Mumbai Indians Star On Bowling With Jasprit Bumrah-Trent Boult Pace Duo

Following his side's win over the Rajasthan Royals (RR) at Jaipur, Mumbai Indians (MI) pacer Deepak Chahar expressed happiness at the team's collective performance and how easy bowling becomes alongside experienced stars like Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah. MI continued their red-hot streak, storming to the top of the table after their 100-run win over RR at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, which happened to be their sixth successive in the competition.

"When you are bowling with world-class partners, it becomes easy for you, because if you have a bad over, they are there to back you up by chipping in with breakthroughs. It then becomes easy for me to come and bowl to the new batter," he said as quoted by MI's official website.

"These guys have done well in international cricket and that experience is helping me. When you bowl as a group, it becomes difficult for the opposition," Chahar added.

Chahar also expressed happiness with how both batters and bowlers have chipped in equally in the last eight to nine matches.

"When you are performing as a team and you have confidence, then you can take some extra time to settle in. So, I think it is the collective teamwork that was on display," he added.

On his team reaching the top of the table, he said, "I think it is good to be on top. When you finish in the top two, you get an extra chance. Also, the momentum is with us. As a player and as a team, you try to focus on one game at a time without thinking about the result," he said.

Chahar concluded by saying that the team is taking each match on
