Indian opener Rohit Sharma has called Pakistan's tainted speedster just a 'normal bowler', while he heralded India's young sensation Jasprit Bumrah as a 'rare talent'. Incidentally, Amir had dismissed Rohit, Ajinkya Rahane and Suresh Raina in quick successions in the Asia Cup encounter. But Rohit said that the hype around Amir was 'unjustified' and the 23-year old, who served a match-fixing ban had a long way to go before being compared with legends. "Stop talking about him already," Rohit said of Amir in Kolkata. "He isn't the only bowler, Pakistan have five other bowlers who are doing well for them. "There is just so much hype around Amir, I don't think it is right to give him too much hype after one match. He is good but he needs to prove it over and over again. "Now people are comparing him to Wasim Akram and all that. He is just a normal bowler, on that given day if he is good, he is good. It is not as if he turns up and blows everyone away."
Rohit Sharma termed all three IPL title victories as special and said getting the right combination is crucial for a team's success.
