Bumrah has grown into an important part of the Indian limited-overs team. He had proven to be the team's preferred bowler, even surpassing Malinga in that regard. This was demonstrated when the Gujarat Lions assigned him a Super Over responsibility, and he justified the decision by keeping Brendon McCullum and Aaron Finch to 12 runs. In the second qualifier against KKR that year, Bumrah bowled MI into the finals with a match-winning spell of 3/7 in three overs. Later, he was instrumental in Mumbai winning the trophy just when it appeared Pune would easily win. That Bumrah was one of the three players MI decided to keep for 2018 did not come as a surprise.
