Bumrah was also trending on social media after not being able to get a single wicket in the series. But Kiwi skipper Kane Williamson defended him and said that he was still bowling well. "We know that Bumrah is a world-class bowler in all formats. He obviously came back to cricket after a period of time off as well but from what I saw, he is bowling really nicely," Williamson said.  The Indian fans would be hoping that Bumrah's form would be a temporary slump and comes back into the original avatar as soon s possible.
