He also revealed that he idolises Deepak Chahar for the way he swings and moves the ball, appreciating the unique skill set.

“I think firstly very exciting. Some bowlers that have tremendous experience around the world and got along with Bumrah really well over the years. He’s going to play a huge role for the franchise and for the side and Deepak is a bowler that I’ve idolised the way he can move the ball and swing the ball so there won’t be any fighting over the first over and well backed up for our experienced squad. That’s very exciting for the franchise,” said Boult when asked about the X-factor MI has in the bowling attack.
