However,바카라 웹사이트Bumrah insisted he could not take full credit for his hat-trick, which came when Kohli decided to review after Chase was given not out on the field.

"Actually I wasn't바카라 웹사이트really sure of the appeal [for the hat-trick], I thought it was bat," Bumrah said in an interview with Kohli published on India's website.

"But, it was a good review, in the end, so I think I owe the hat-trick to the captain!"

Kohli pressed Bumrah (6-16) on his mentality heading into the innings, with India having amassed an impressive tally of 416 thanks바카라 웹사이트to Hanuma Vihari's maiden Test century바카라 웹사이트and a knock of 57 from Ishant Sharma.

"Sometimes when there's so much help from the wicket, a lot of bounce and late movement, you can get greedy, go for wickets and be over-aggressive," Bumrah said.

"At that time, you have to just keep things simple. Try to bowl good balls and create pressure. That's바카라 웹사이트what was going on in my head."

Bumrah also praised the efforts of his fellow bowlers바카라 웹사이트Ishant, Mohammed Shami바카라 웹사이트and Ravindra Jadeja.

"There's a lot of communication that happens on the field as well," Bumrah said.

"When I'm getting wickets, it's바카라 웹사이트somebody else's job to create pressure, and when they're getting wickets, it's바카라 웹사이트my job to create the pressure.

"So a lot of communication goes on, a lot of ideas, and we try to help each other, if things are not going well we try to push each other on. It's a good relationship."
