When I started as a youngster, I used to get angry left, right, and centre and I used to do all types of gimmicks which didn’t really help my game a lot.

“So over the years played a lot of international cricket, released what works for me. So I am smiling but the fire inside is burning all the time. I don’t try to show it all the time but this is the way that helps me to succeed and with that controlled aggression I try to take my game forward,” Bumrah said during a chat with the ICC.
