Fans have been waiting for a long time for the return of Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah is now very close to return. Bumrah, who has recovered from recovery, has started bowling in the nets at the National Cricket Academy. Recently, an update was given by BCCI regarding Bumrah, in which it was told that he will play practice matches in NCA. Now captain Rohit Sharma has also talked about Bumrah’s return.
Talking about Bumrah in the press conference before the ODI series against West Indies, the Indian captain said, “The experience he brings is very important. Right now he is coming back from serious injury and I have no idea that he will travel to Ireland as the team has not been announced yet.
The Indian captain further said, “If he plays then it is good and we expect him to play before the World Cup. When a player returns from a serious injury, match fitness, match spirit are some of the key components, which are missing.
Rohit Sharma further told that he is in constant touch with NCA and things are looking positive right now. The Indian captain said, “We will see what is planned and everything will depend on his recovery. We are in constant touch with the NCA and things are looking positive at the moment.”
Bumrah is out for almost a year
The Indian fast bowler played his last match as a T20 International against Australia in September, 2022. It has been almost a year since he was out of the team. While talking about his career, he has played 30 Tests, 72 ODIs and 60 T20 International matches so far. He has taken 128 wickets in Tests, 121 in ODIs and 70 wickets in T20 Internationals.
