"He might be hurt by the fact that he stayed back at MI and gave his all" - Kris Srikkanth on Jasprit Bumrah's cryptic Instagram post

Former Indian cricketer Kris Srikkanth recently tried to decode the meaning behind Bumrah's cryptic Instagram story. The Indian pacer shared a message on Instagram on Tuesday, which read:

"Silence is sometimes the best answer."

Sharing his opinion on Bumrah's message, Srikkanth was quoted as saying on his YouTube channel (h/t Rediff):

"You can't find another cricketer like Jasprit Bumrah. Be it Tests or white-ball cricket, he is one of the best going around. He gave it his all in the World Cup. And as you said, in the fifth Test against England, he was the stand-in Test captain in 2022."

He continued:

"He might be regretting. It could be his ego, or he might be hurt by the fact that he stayed back at MI and gave his all, but the team is bringing back someone who had left and celebrating him. He feels it's not fair.
