India Should Be Worried About Bumrah’s Fitness, Says Pakistan Coach Javed

New Delhi: Pakistan's interim head coach Aaqib Javed said India should be worried about the fitness of their leading fast-bowler Jasprit Bumrah ahead of their clash in the upcoming Champions Trophy, set to happen in Dubai on February 23.

Bumrah has been out of action since back spasms ruled him out of bowling in the fourth innings of the Sydney Test. He is currently at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (COE) in Bengaluru, where the clarity on his Champions Trophy availability will come after scans are done, as claimed by captain Rohit Sharma on the eve of the ODI series in Nagpur.

"They should be worried about Bumrah's fitness. When you play in the Champions Trophy, the most beautiful thing about it is you can't take any team lightly. The top eight best teams are playing. If any team has a bowler like Bumrah, it is a plus point. But it is not like we will plan everything around him," Aaqib told reporters on the sidelines of Pakistan’s training session at the Ghani Glass ground in Lahore on Wednesday.
