Mr Tharoor also agreed with Chris Martin's praise of Jasprit Bumrah during a live show in Ahmedabad on January 26. Chris Martin performed a personalised song for Bumrah: "Jasprit, Jasprit, wellll... Jasprit my beautiful brother. The best bowler in the whole of cricket, we do not enjoy watching you destroy, England, with wicket, after wicket, after wicket."
Mr Tharoor said he is "touched to see" Bumrah get a shout-out from Chris Martin.
Coldplay toured India with its 'Music of the Spheres', starting with three concerts at DY Patil Sports Stadium in Navi Mumbai on January 18,19 and 21. The second leg of the tour included two shows on January 25 and 26 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
