Talking about the most lethal bowlers in the world in the 2020s, names like Mitchell Starc, Jasprit Bumrah and Joffra Archer come to mind. Great fast bowlers have also been coming from Pakistan, currently bowlers like Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi are taking that legacy forward. Actually, some time ago Babar Azam was asked that if he had to save 10 runs in an over, whom would he choose? You will be shocked to hear Babar’s answer to this.

Want to save 10 runs in one over, Bumrah or Naseem?

Babar Azam was asked in a media interview that 10 runs have to be saved in the last over of a T20 match. He has two options in front of him in the form of Jasprit Bumrah and Naseem Shah, so whom will Babar choose? Let us tell you that T20 is a format where scoring 10 runs in 2 balls is not a big deal. In such a situation, saving 10 runs in 6 balls is considered a big thing.

On the question of saving 10 runs in the last over, Babar Azam took the name of Naseem Shah without hesitation. Babar cited Naseem’s commitment and cricket talent as the reason for his selection. Babar said that Shaheen Shah Afridi is on his way to becoming a great bowler. According to Babar, Naseem is also moving forward on the same path.

Naseem or Bumrah, whose figures are better?

Naseem Shah has so far played 33 matches in his T20 career and taken 29 wickets and his economy rate is 8.06. On the other hand, India’s Jasprit Bumrah had taken 40 wickets in the same number of matches and his economy rate after 33 T20 matches was 6.76. Obviously, Bumrah’s figures in equal matches are much better.

Jasprit Bumrah has recently become only the second Indian bowler to complete 100 wickets in International T20 cricket. Before him, Arshdeep Singh had completed a century of T20 wickets.

Indian fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah and veteran cricketer Mohammad Kaif are face to face. In fact, Kaif raised questions regarding managing Bumrah’s overs in white ball matches. Bumrah, who usually silently kept this analysis of Kaif wrong. Responding to Bumrah’s statement, Mohammad Kaif has described himself as a fan of ‘Yorker King’ Bumrah.

What is the whole matter?

The controversy began when Mohammad Kaif questioned the strategy of captain Suryakumar Yadav, in which Bumrah was spent 3 overs with a new ball in T20. Kaif said that Rohit Sharma used to get Bumrah under his captaincy to get only one over with a new ball, while Suryakumar is getting 3 overs consecutive overs. Kaif said that such a strategy can be harmful for Team India in more pressure matches.

Jasprit Bumrah, while answering this on social media, wrote, “Even before he was wrong, it is still not right.” Bumrah’s answer was seen that he disagreed with Mohammad Kaif’s analysis and does not agree with earlier analysts.

Mohammad Kaif replied

Now responding to Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Kaif said, “Please, understand this, a well -wisher and a fan of cricket comment made. You are the biggest match winner of Indian cricket. I know what to do to give your best on the field wearing a jersey of the Indian team.”

Jasprit Bumrah has been in discussions due to workload management last month. Even on the tour of England, he was able to play only three out of 5 Tests. Bumrah has so far been able to take only 5 wickets in 4 matches of the Asia Cup. It will be worth seeing whether they prove to be a trump card in India’s victory in the Asia Cup final.

Please take this as a cricketing observation from a well-wisher and an admirer. You are Indian Cricket’s Biggest Match-Winner and I know what it takes to give it all when on field wearing India colors. https://t.co/fqjh7ngrb9

Jasprit Bumrah is the world’s number-1 Test bowler, but has been consistently struggling with injuries. Since playing only 3 Tests on the England tour, critics have surrounded him. There has been discussion on the commentary box to social media about the workload management of Bumrah.

Chetan Sharma clearly says that the players should take a decision on playing or not only after taking the advice of the physio.

Jaspreet Bumrah gets support

Chetan Sharma himself has been a fast bowler. He said, “If the medical team advises, and the doctor says that I have to take antibiotics medicine, then I have to do it. Similarly, if the physio is saying that the workload needs to be managed properly, then we should listen to them because physio can better assess fitness.”

Chetan Sharma represented India for almost a decade in international cricket. He scored 396 runs in 23 Tests for India and took 61 wickets. In ODI cricket, he took 456 runs and 67 wickets in 65 matches.

Big statement on Asia Cup

Team India has not yet been announced for the Asia Cup. On this, Chetan Sharma said, “I will say that whatever will be selected will be in the interest of the country. We are playing very good cricket at this time, I am proud to see Team India’s performance in England. I hope that India will win the Asia Cup title and the T20 World Cup will also be in India shortly after that.”

He took 4 wickets in that match against Australia.

India vs England remains the center of fitness discussion of Jaspreet Bumrah amidst the fourth Test. On the third day in the Manchester Test, Bumrah returned to the dressing room and he was also seen climbing on the stairs. On the other hand, Mohammad Kaif’s retirement statements (Mohammad Kaif on Jasprit Bumrah Retirement) have created a sensation. Meanwhile, the video of an advertisement has gone viral, in which Bumrah is seen saying that it would be better to retire by joining Aamir Khan or Ranbir Kapoor’s team.

Actually this viral video is of an advertisement, which has been prepared for entertainment. First Rishabh Pant, trolling Aamir Khan, says that he has a picture but with Ranbir Kapoor. Rohit Sharma standing near there is laughing. Aamir does not like to troll this Rishabh Pant, so he deliberately calls Ranbir Kapoor as ‘Ranveer Singh’. On one side Pant wanted a photo, while Ranbir went far and started complaining to Hardik Pandya.

Ranbir also complained to Ravichandran Ashwin, on the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah was seen looking for ‘Raita’ on the food table, but Hardik jokingly said that ‘Raita’ has been spread by Aamir sir. Aamir and Ranbir had a fierce debate and Ranbir said the famous dialogue of the animal movie and said, “I am not heard, I am not deaf.” Talking about Best-11, both of them challenged each other for a cricket match.

Better than this, I retire …

Aamir Khan and Ranbir Kapoor had a fierce debate for the cricket match. Aamir connected Rishabh Pant with his team, while Ranbir asked Rohit Sharma to come with him. Hardik Pandya, standing away, asked Jaspreet Bumrah who would like to go to whose team he would like to go. Bumrah said, “I can retire better than this.”

The fourth match of the India vs England Test series is to be played in Manchester from 23 July. Before that, Team India are being shocked. Arshdeep Singh is already injured, while now Akashdeep has also started having fitness problems. Akashdeep, who took a total of 10 wickets in the Birmingham Test match, has a back pain problem. This is not the first time in the current series when Akashdeep has had a fitness problem, he was seen suffering from back pain even in the second innings of Lord’s Test.

According to a report published in the Times of India, Anshul Kamboj has been included in the squad as a replacement of Arshdeep and Akashdeep. It has also been made clear that Jaspreet Bumrah will play in Manchester, which is to start from July 23. Before this series started, it was clear that Bumrah would play 3 matches in the series, so Bumrah hardly plays the last match of the series.

Bumrah will play, even if you play

It has also been revealed in this report that Jasprit Bumrah and Akashdeep will not play together in the next two Tests. So Bumrah plays in Manchester, so Akashdeep will replace Bumrah in the last Test match to be held at The Oval ground. Since Bumrah and Akashdeep will not play together, Indian pace attack seems to be weakening somewhere. Therefore, a mountain of troubles on Team India is almost certain.

The Indian team also had trouble in net practice due to the injury of Akashdeep and Arshdeep. Even bowling coach Morne Morkel was seen bowling. On the other hand, it will also be interesting to see whether Anshul Kamboj gets a chance in the playing eleven or not, because he has no international experience. Talking about Akashdeep, he also had back pain problems on the Australian tour.

Currently, England are ahead 2–1 in the series after three Tests, the next two matches are to be played at Old Trafford and The Oval ground. India will have to win the Manchester Test to stay in the series.

Whether it is about Test cricket, ODI or T20 format, Jasprit Bumrah has been one of the best bowlers in the world. Bumrah has taken more than 300 wickets in his international career and good batsmen shy away from playing big shots against him. Bumrah is often called ‘Turup Ke Ika’ for Team India, but he is often plagued by injuries. Know here what is the real reason for Bumrah’s repeated injury?

Why do you get injured again and again?

Jasprit Bumrah has many reasons for repeated injuries, but the main reason is his bowling action. Bumrah’s action is copied a lot in the country and abroad, but the truth is that his bowling action keeps calling injuries. Actually Bumrah bowls from the waist. There are also claims that while throwing the ball, Bumrah’s spine becomes more stretched than other bowlers. However, no medical institution has ever presented any evidence regarding any such claim.

The biggest reason is believed that Bumrah continues to get hurt again and again due to emphasis on the waist. For this reason, words like ‘Workload Management’ are often added with Bumrah. Bumrah appears unable to throw long spells in many matches due to emphasis on the waist.

In the last match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, Bumrah was injured, after which he had to stay away from cricket for several weeks. At the same time, Bumrah was rested from the second Test against England in view of the possibility of this injury and workload management.

Michael Vaughan Questions Team India Selection: The second Test match is being played between India and England from Wednesday. Indian team management decided to relax fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah in this match. After which veteran players like Ravi Shastri, Sunil Gavaskar, Tom Moody and Nasir Hussain expressed their displeasure over the decision of head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Shubman Gill. Now the name of former England player Michael Vaughan has also been added to this list. Vaughan has also criticized India’s decision.

I thought Bumrah would play- Vaughan

Vaughan was quite surprised when Bumrah was not included in the second Test. Talking to Cricbuzz, Von said, “I am surprised that India has announced, Bumrah will play only three Tests. Why are you telling them this? Just three play. If you don’t choose it, it’s fine. But after seven days, after seven days rest, after being behind in India’s series, I felt that he would play here.”

Vaughan said that this match is very important for India. They need to win this. Von said, “India will have to win this match. If they lose, they will lag behind 2-0, you will bring Jaspreet back to Lord’s. I know the players want to play in Lord’s. But I am only watching India, he will have to win this match this week.”

Vaughan has also questioned the selection of Team India after this. Team India has included only 5 specialist batsmen and a lot of all -rounders in this match. Von said, “I wanted two more bowlers. I wanted Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav and Arshdeep Singh. You can argue that such a pitch could have been played with three spinners in Edgbaston with three spinners. It is dry and slow.”

I am surprised that Bumrah is not playing this match- Shastri

Shastri was surprised by the Indian team’s decision not to feed Bumrah in the second Test. He said, “This is a very important match, he has got rest for a week. I am surprised that Bumrah is not playing this match. It should be removed from the player’s hand. The captain and the coaching staff should decide who should play in the playing 11. It is an important match from the perspective of the series, he should have played more than anything.”

Shastri further said, “Lords can come later. This is an important match, where you have to do almost direct counter-attack. Play it, make it 1-1 and then option it, you want to rest in Lord’s, rest in Lord’s.

Shastri said, “You have the best fast bowler in the world and you sit out after seven days rest, it is very difficult to trust it.”

In this match, Team India Management has put its main bowler Jaspreet Bumrah out of the playing XI, instead of Akashdeep in the pace attack.

After losing the toss, Shubman Gill said, “There have been 3 changes in our team. Nitish Reddy, Washington Sundar and Akashdeep have come in the team. Jasprit is not playing Bumrah. The reason for this is his workload management. We got a very big and good break and this is a very important match for us. When the third match will be in Lord’s, we can use them there.”

A big statement on Kuldeep also

Indian Test captain Shubman Gill also gave an important statement on not feeding Kuldeep Yadav. Team India has included all-rounder Washington Sundar in the final-11 instead of feeding the main spinner as Kuldeep. Gill said, “We were considering feeding Kuldeep, but in the last match our lower order batting was not good, so Sundar was selected to bring depth in batting.”

India 0-1 in the series

In that match, a total of 5 centuries were scored by India in both innings, due to which the Indian team had set a huge target of 371 runs in front of England in the fourth innings.
