He then added, “let me go on record and say that he (Jasprit Bumrah) is the best bowler in the world at this stage and the best is yet to come hopefully.”
On being asked how he felt after Mumbai clinched their fourth IPL title, the batting legend replied, “top of the world.” Tendulkar also mentioned that he thought Mumbai were 15 runs short. Speaking on the conditions he said that the ball was getting sticky, especially when the spinners came to bowl. “Felt possibly we were 15 runs short but the track and the spinners ball it was getting little sticky.”'Bumrah, world's best' - Sachin and Yuvi@sachin_rt and @YUVSTRONG12 were unanimous in their opinion of @Jaspritbumrah93 , while weighing in on @mipaltan's 3rd #VIVOIPL final win over their arch-rivals. #MIvCSK By @28anand & @RajalArora Watch the ? - https://t.co/Z0yAur9KGk pic.twitter.com/RFwXrJR417
