‘That’s India’s Problem To Deal With’: Ben Stokes On Bumrah’s Workload Management
Ben Stokes: England skipper Ben Stokes was a man of few words when asked about Jasprit Bumrah, with India’s leading pacer expected to miss the second Test beginning on Wednesday (July 2) at Edgbaston here.
After suffering a stress fracture in his back in the final Test of the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, where Bumrah wreaked havoc on the Aussie batters, Gautam Gambhir and Shubman Gill had confirmed that the spearhead will only play three out of the five Tests due to workload management.
When asked, in the pre-match conference, if England got an advantage from India’s decision to announce publicly that Bumrah will only play three games heading into the series, Stokes replied, “That's India's problem to deal with. I'm the captain of England. Let India decide what they want to do and what they want to say publicly.”
