5th Test: Jasprit Bumrah Released From India Squad Ahead Of Day Two’s Play
Tendulkar Trophy Test: Fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has been released from India’s squad, after not being included in playing XI for the ongoing fifth Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test against England at The Oval, due to workload management, said the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
Bumrah wasn’t spotted in the Indian team bus ahead of arriving at the venue for day two’s play. “Mr Jasprit Bumrah has been released from India’s squad for the fifth Test of the series against England. The fifth and final Test of the series is underway at Kennington Oval, London,” said the BCCI in a statement on Friday.
Before the five-match series began in England, chief selector Ajit Agarkar and head coach Gautam Gambhir said Bumrah wouldn’t feature in more than three Tests on tour due to workload management. Bumrah featured in the first Test at Headingley, Leeds, followed by the third and fourth games at Lord’s and Old Trafford, Manchester, respectively.
