Former Trainer Provides Injury Update on Jasprit Bumrah

Bumrah was injured during the final Test in Sydney, which led to him undergoing scans. This injury now casts doubt on his participation in the upcoming Champions Trophy. Former India trainer Ramji Srinivasan has advised caution and emphasized that Bumrah should not be risked if he’s not fully fit.

Former Trainer’s Advice on Bumrah’s Injury

In an interview with the Times of India, Srinivasan stated, “Bumrah is a treasure, and he should be handled with care. The Champions Trophy is not the end of the world. If there is even the slightest doubt, he should not be in the team. He has never played five consecutive Test matches in his career.”

Update on Bumrah’s Injury Recovery

Srinivasan elaborated, “If it’s just a cramp, he should be fit, and he must be feeling fine even before boarding the flight to return home. However, I’m not so sure. The injury could be related to stress, which is a result of playing too much cricket. If it is a Grade 1 to Grade 3 stress fracture, it may take anywhere from one to six months to heal.”
