Rohit Sharma Provides a Big Update on the Return of Jasprit Bumrah:
The last two Tests of the next four-match series against the No. 1 nation in the world, Australia, are scheduled for next month. Team India captain Rohit Sharma is hoping that pace bowler and Mumbai Indians teammate Jasprit Bumrah would be available to lead the assault.
The 29-year-old Burmah, who hasn’t played in an international match since September of last year due to a back ailment, isn’t included in the India squad for the first two Test matches, but recently returned to bowl at the National Cricket Academy, giving fans optimism for a quick comeback.
“Not too sure about Bumrah, I am hoping he plays the next (last) two Tests (against Australia), we don’t want to take any risks with him as back injuries are always critical. We have a lot of cricket coming back after that also,” Rohit Sharma said.
“We are in constant touch with physios and doctors in NCA. The medical team will give him as much time as he wants,” he added.
The final two Tests will take place over the first two weeks of March. Bumrah was hurried into the T20 side during a home series against Australia last October–November to improve the team’s chances at the T20 World Cup, when he again broke down and was sidelined indefinitely.
