Indian cricket fans are eagerly awaiting the return of the star pacer, Jasprit Bumrah, to the international stage. After suffering a severe back injury last year, Bumrah was forced to sit out the T20 World Cup 2022 and the World Test Championship final 2023. However, recent reports from News18 suggest that the speedster is making a strong recovery following a back surgery in March and could be back in top form in time for the T20I series against Ireland in August.
Bumrah’s absence has been sorely felt by the Indian team, who have struggled to find a replacement for his devastating pace and accuracy. But with his return on the horizon, fans are hopeful that India’s bowling attack will once again be a force to be reckoned with.
“Jasprit Bumrah is looking very good for the Ireland series in August this year. It will be a big boost to the Indian cricket team and will also allow Bumrah time in the middle after the long injury lay-off. If everything stays on course, a Bumrah at peak fitness is likely to take field,” a senior BCCI official told News18.
The BCCI official further provided updates on Jasprit Bumrah’s rehabilitation progress at the National Cricket Academy (NCA). Not only is Bumrah being closely monitored by NCA head VVS Laxman, but he is also receiving personalized attention from Nitin Patel, the Head of Sports Science and Medical department. Additionally, S Rajnikanth is the physiotherapist working closely with Bumrah to ensure a safe and effective recovery.
“Nitin Patel and Rajnikanth have been working very closely with Bumrah and keeping him on track during the rehab period at the NCA. Both are very experienced and don’t want to take any chance with Bumrah in what is a very crucial white-ball year and also the start of the new World Test Championship cycle,” the source said.
Jasprit Bumrah’s return to the Indian cricket team would be a significant boost to their bowling attack, ultimately increasing their chances of winning the upcoming World Cup. With his exceptional skills and experience, Bumrah’s presence on the team would undoubtedly strengthen their overall performance
