Bumrah Should Bowl 12 Overs In A Day In England Tests To Manage His Workload, Says WV Raman
Before departing for England, head coach Gautam Gambhir had said that due to workload management and a history of back injuries with Bumrah - with the most recent occurrence happening during the fifth Test against Australia in Sydney - the fast-bowling spearhead would participate in just three of the five Tests in England. The same reasoning was also given by chief selector Ajit Agarkar during the squad announcement press conference.
As of now, India are yet to take on call on the Tests which Bumrah, the top-ranked Test bowler, would play in England and more clarity would come once the intra-squad game is over in Beckenham. “Yes, that's a very key factor for India - Bumrah's availability. If it's fairly certain that he's not going to play more than three Test matches, it becomes relatively easier because you know that you will not have him in two Test matches.”
