"Means a lot to me to be able to use the knowledge I have today to help youngsters" - Jasprit Bumrah on his time at NCA

Team India's fast bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah is making the most of his time at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru by sharing his experience with up-and-coming players from the country.

Bumrah shared a couple of pictures on his Instagram account earlier today (Sunday), in which he can be seen giving some valuable advice to youngsters. He mentioned how a few years back, he was also very eager to learn new things.

The speedster added that he relishes the opportunity to work with younger players, helping them progress by sharing his knowledge.

Jasprit Bumrah captioned the post:

"Not long ago, I was on the other side, learning, observing and grasping everything I could. Which is why it means a lot to me to be able to use the knowledge I have today to help youngsters along the way."

Bumrah is currently on the sidelines due to a back injury. He was ruled out of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 and is rehabilitating at the NCA. The seasoned campaigner will be hoping to regain his fitness soon, given that the all-important T20 World Cup 2022 is just around the corner.
