The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), on Monday, announced their squad for the Bangladesh and New Zealand tours. Ravindra Jadeja makes his return to the side whereas it was Jasprit Bumrah who was on no show in all the squads announced. The men in blue ahead of the all-important T20 world Cup faced a major setback, that too in the form of Jasprit Bumrah. Ravindra Jadeja was already injured but Bumrah’s injury at the last moment raised severe questions about the team management and India’s death bowling department.
The team management, the medical staff of the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India), and the National Cricket Academy (NCA) came under severe criticism following Bumrah’s injury update. India’s hopes were dented to some extent with their spearhead being ruled out, but they certainly had no other option but to leave Bumrah out. Now chief selector Chetan Sharma has reacted to the Jasprit Bumrah injury ahead and has spilled out some crucial pointers.

Chetan Sharma said:
The selection committee has a lot on their plate and has to deal with issues related to workload management. We monitor it very closely. We had tried to hurry Jasprit Bumrah, we tried to get him ready with the World Cup coming, but see what happened. We are without Jasprit in the ongoing World Cup.

The Indian speedster sustained a severe back injury when India were touring England. This injury kept Bumrah on the sidelines, he missed the Asia Cup that was played in August-September. India crashed out of the tournament owing to issues related to their death bowling department. Jasprit Bumrah somehow made a comeback when Australia was touring India, but his injury aggravated which led to him being ruled out of the World Cup. Mohammad Shami who was a traveling reserve was drafted in the side and to India’s respite, he has been going well for team India
