Notably, Australian women’s cricketer Amanda Wellington weighed in on Bumrah’s enigmatic message, expressing her sentiments on Twitter.
The World Cup aftermath
Following India’s World Cup 2023 loss, key players such as Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma opted for a period of self-reflection, abstaining from public appearances and refraining from commenting on the tournament. Bumrah, who played a crucial role in India’s journey to the final, maintained a low profile as well. The trio even skipped the subsequent T20I series, focusing on recuperation and regaining composure after the disappointment of the World Cup final.
