The whole world is praising fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who took a record 32 wickets for India in the Test series against Australia. The player, who single-handedly carried India’s hopes throughout the series amid poor performance by the batsmen and lack of good support from the bowlers, ultimately had to be ruled out of the series in Sydney due to a back injury. Due to the absence of Bumrah in Sydney, India lost by six wickets on the third day. Now a big revelation has come regarding this.
Bumrah got injured in Melbourne
According to a report, Bumrah got injured in Melbourne a week ago. In the fourth Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Bumrah once again surprised the Australian line-up on the fourth day by single-handedly dismissing Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh and Alex Carey in a few overs. At the end of the day, Indian captain Rohit Sharma asked Bumrah to bowl one more over to get out the last pair of Nathan Lyon or Scott Boland. But in response to this, Bumrah said that he no longer has the strength.
Bumrah looked completely tired at MCG
The report said that after the end of the day’s play on the fourth day of the Boxing Day Test, apart from Bumrah, ten Indian players and two Australian batsmen went to the dressing room. Meanwhile, the Indian vice-captain was seen standing alone in the middle of the MCG pitch, completely tired. He clung for a few seconds, placing his hands on his knees and straining to breathe. This was a crucial moment that was overlooked. This increased his workload concerns and possibly led to his injury in Sydney.
BCCI has not given any information about Bumrah’s injury.
The BCCI medical team has not yet given any official information about the severity of Bumrah’s back injury. If Bumrah’s injury is of Grade 1 category, then it will take him two to three weeks to recover from it. If his injury is in the Grade 2 category, he may take up to 6 weeks to recover.
