New Delhi. Jasprit Bumrah was rested in the fourth test match against England played in Ranchi. He did not play the fourth test for India. Despite this, India managed to capture the series with the fourth match. Sunil Gavaskar is not happy with Bumrah being given rest. He has said that no one gets tired after bowling 23 overs.
Sunil Gavaskar said, “Despite bowling 15 overs in the first innings of the Rajkot Test and only 8 overs in the second innings, Bumrah was rested for the Ranchi Test. It should not be forgotten that there was a gap of 9 days between the third and fourth test. No one gets tired after bowling 23 overs. Then why was Bumrah given rest? After the fourth test, there is a break of 8 days for the last test. “8 days is enough for an athlete to stabilize himself and play for the country.”
Pakistani cricketer’s claim, said – after the fight between Virat and Gambhir, I messaged Kohli…
Sunil Gavaskar further said, “If England had won the fourth Test, then undoubtedly the last Test would have been a decider. In the fourth test, young player Akashdeep filled the void of Bumrah. This makes sense that even if the big players do not play, our young players will fill their void.” Let us tell you that Akashdeep had taken a total of 3 wickets in the fourth test match against England.
Before IPL 2024, Mahendra Singh Dhoni got a big shock, the dreaded opener underwent surgery, may be out of the entire tournament.
