Asia cup 2025 ind vs uae: The Asia Cup 2025 debut was fantastic for the Indian cricket team. In the very first match, Team India has made a strong start in the tournament by defeating UAE by 9 wickets. However, even after this victory, the strategy of the team management has come under question. In fact, former cricketer Ajay Jadeja has targeted Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir after being fed to Jaspreet Bumrah against UAE.
Jadeja’s sharp statement
In a conversation on Sony Sports before the match against UAE, Ajay Jadeja taunted Gautam Gambhir and said that the team management should keep bowlers like Bumrah. He said, “Usually you save star bowlers like Bumrah, but here they were also removed for bowling against a team like UAE. Either you should never save them or if you want to save it, then give rest in such matches. The logic says this, but we do not know how to work with logic.”
Jadeja further said this clearly, “This match is against UAE and I am not considering the team less. I have seen the talent of UAE captain Muhammad Wasim. We cannot speak any team weak. The Indian team is a T20 World Cup winning team. So I make it clear that if I play Bumrah, I will go on strike.”
Irfan Pathan also agreed
Ajay Jadeja’s opinion has also been justified by former all -rounder Irfan Pathan. He believes that Bumrah’s fitness has already been a matter of concern due to injuries many times, so the team should use them thoughtfully.
Match condition
However, the Indian team did not have much need for Bumrah’s bowling against UAE. Spinner Kuldeep Yadav and all -rounder Shivam Dubey took 7 wickets and did not give the opposition team a chance to reach the big score. In response, Indian batsmen easily won by 9 wickets, winning run. In this match, Bumrah returned without taking wickets.
Why is the question arising?
Jasprit Bumrah has been struggling with injuries for some time. On the tour of Australia this year, he also had a stress fracture in his back, due to which he was out of the Champions Trophy. This is the reason why now how their workload will be managed, it has become a matter of big debate.
Concern increased before Pakistan
Team India is to face Pakistan on 14 September. This match is considered to be the most high-voltage match of the Asia Cup. In such a situation, the discussion between cricket experts and fans has now intensified to feed Bumrah continuously or not.
