A huge shoutout to Jasprit Bumrah. We are lucky that he plays for us,” Kohli told the packed stadium, prompting chants of ‘Boom Boom’ from the enthusiastic crowd.

The event took a delightful turn when presenter Gaurav Kapoor suggested signing a petition to declare Bumrah a national treasure. “I am thinking of signing a petition to declare Jasprit Bumrah a national treasure. Will you sign it?” he asked Kohli. “I will sign it right now,” Kohli responded, highlighting the immense value and pride Bumrah brings to the nation.
