I am back. Rohit, Bumrah, Surya, Ishan, Polly (Pollard), Malinga. Come on let’s begin. Obviously, the feeling of coming back to Mumbai is very special for a lot of reasons. How my cricketing journey started in 2015 with MI, them noticing me in 2013…when I look back…how my span of 10 years has been something very special. It has not sunk in yet that finally, I am back where my whole cricketing journey started. I have achieved all the possible things. They have been the most important part of my life,”
