Pearls of wisdom from @Jaspritbumrah93 that capture the spirit of #TheBhagwadGita after his incredible 6/19 display y'day. Lots to learn about how to be स्थितप्रज्ञ=Equanimous to results but keep putting 100% effort irrespective of outcome. Sharing as a #Thread
This is the beauty of cricket (and life), isn't it... One day you will see everything is going in your favour. Another day you can try whatever you want, but it doesn't work for you. That is exactly why you need to keep a stable head.
Every day is a new day. There will be days when you will get the edge 1st ball... & days you will bowl similarly all day but not get a single edge. You don't want to get desperate... That is why I rate stability a lot. Bcos at the end of the day there is very little in your hand.
Sometimes you will bowl well... but the catch will be dropped. Sometimes a full toss will get you a wicket. That doesn't mean you bowl more full tosses. So I only try to prepare what I can. Not think of what is not in my hand. After that whatever is the result, I accept & move on
(& the best at last) Today was a good day. It will bring a lot of praise. But neither do I get too happy with praise nor do I get too down with criticism. I try to do what I can. Very grateful for the applause you get but I always try to keep a stable head. <End of thread>
