After a disastrous series for India, the former Australian captain Michael Clarke praised the Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah, calling him the best all-format bowler. Jasprit Bumrah looked to carry the hopes for India single-handedly with his bowling abilities. Speaking to ESPN's Around The Wicket, Clark said, "The thing I've thought about Bumrah, after the series finished and I was sitting and thinking about his performances, I actually think he's the best fast bowler ever across all three formats. "I know a lot of great fast bowlers, Curtly Ambrose, Glenn McGrath, didn't get to play T20 cricket so I'm not talking about those guys, but in regards to anyone who has played all three formats, I think he might be the best ever. He's actually that good in any conditions, that's what makes him great; any conditions, any format, this guy's a freak." Aaron Finch, another former Aussie, said that the Aussies were successful with their plan of tiring Bumrah. He said, "Australia were prepared to play the long game with Jasprit Bumrah. They wanted to make him bowl over and over and over, make him come back for one more spell, bowl another three, four, five [more] overs and in the end it worked, they broke him in the end. They played that long game, they won. Had he bowled in the last innings in Sydney, would Australia have got over the line? Think they still just get over the line, but it would have been a lot more difficult than it was."

He has been the sole turning point for India to have all the hopes alive amidst batting struggles. India's dependency on Bumrah got clear as India failed to defend 162 in the last Test at Sydney. Bumrah, suffering from back spasms, had to leave for a scan in the middle. Even though he was declared fit to bat, he could not bowl in the second inning. Throughout the tour, Bumrah lacked consistent support from the other side. Mohammad Siraj bowled around 157 overs and became the second-highest wicket-taker for India with 20 wickets. However, his average of 31.15 showed where India lagged. In Perth, India had Harshit Rana as a formidable force but was ruthlessly smashed in Adelaide, which got him dropped in Gabba. Akash Deep looked good, but a niggle in the back sidelined him from the last Test. Prasidh Krishna's six wickets in Sydney hinted that he might have been worth including earlier in the series, but alas! Australia reclaimed the BGT after 10 years, claiming the spot in the World Test Championship final for the second time
