T20 World Cup:<\/strong> Former India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who is set for a comeback from injury after nearly a year away from the game when India take on Ireland in a three-match bilateral T20I series starting here on Friday, said that he is not holding back, have no restrictions and his body feels good.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The 29-year-old Bumrah will also have the additional responsibility of captaining the side on his return after a long journey of frustrations over the last year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The pace spearhead missed key events including the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022 and the World Test Championship final aside from a handful of bilateral games, but Bumrah is back now and has confirmed that he has no restrictions and will be able to bowl full tilt in a much-needed relief for fans ahead of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in October-November.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"You have to respect your body and give it time to recover. But what it does is makes you hungry. I understood the moment my body recovered, I could do that little bit extra. I'm not holding back. I have had many net sessions. Not just at NCA, even back home with the Gujarat team. I have no restrictions. The body feels good," Bumrah said in the press conference ahead of the first T20I against Ireland.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The right-arm pacer stressed that he remained positive throughout the rehabilitation period and was confident of coming back strong.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"When your injury takes it becomes frustrating at times. But instead of having self-doubts and thinking that I won't be able to come back," he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"I respected my body. I never thought that my dark days are over or I would not be able to come back because I never thought about the future. I was looking for solutions and once the solution came, I was feeling very good that I will come back and that I will work my way up," he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

While Bumrah's return is huge news, the pacer said that he'll keep expectations low and look to enjoy the game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Asked if Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid's comments on his absence adds pressure on him, Bumrah maintained that he wouldn't be stressed by someone else's opinion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"I respect their opinion but irrespective of whether they are good or bad, I don't take anyone's opinion seriously," Bumrah said about expectations from within the camp.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"I don't want to put myself under pressure. I don't put unnecessary expectations on me. I am coming back after a long time, I want to enjoy it now. I'm not thinking that I have to contribute a lot or I will change everything.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

I am not keeping too much expectations on myself. I am coming to enjoy the game and the rest of the expectations are their problem, it is not mine. My job is to enjoy the game, to prepare the best I can and to keep my best foot forward," he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2023\/08\/ind-vs-ire-i-have-no-restrictions-body-feels-good-says-bumrah-ahead-of-much-awaited-comeback-1692298892.jpeg", "alt_img": "'I Have No Restrictions, Body Feels Good', Says Jasprit Bumrah Ahead Of Much-awaited Comeback", "alt_title": "'I Have No Restrictions, Body Feels Good', Says Jasprit Bumrah Ahead Of Much-awaited Comeback", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "'I Have No Restrictions, Body Feels Good', Says Jasprit Bumrah Ahead Of Much-awaited Comeback On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "T20 World Cup:\u00a0Former India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who is set for a comeback from injury after nearly a year, 'I Have No Restrictions, Body Feels Good', Says Jasprit Bumrah Ahead Of Much-awaited Comeback.", "seo_keywords": "Former India, Jasprit Bumrah, ICC Men, T20 World Cup, World Test Championship, Cricket World Cup, While Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Rahul Dravid", "tag": null, "tagging": "Former India, Jasprit Bumrah, ICC Men, T20 World Cup, World Test Championship, Cricket World Cup, While Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Rahul Dravid", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "ind-vs-ire-i-have-no-restrictions-body-feels-good-says-bumrah-ahead-of-much-awaited-comeback", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "1", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "1439", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "1", "created": "2023-08-18 00:31:32", "updated": "2023-08-19 15:33:07", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "Former India, Jasprit Bumrah, ICC Men, T20 World Cup, World Test Championship, Cricket World Cup, While Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Rahul Dravid", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "0", "google_feed": "0", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "12", "jio_date": "2023-08-18 00:31:32", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "1", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": "Select", "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/ind-vs-ire-i-have-no-restrictions-body-feels-good-says-bumrah-ahead-of-much-awaited-comeback-127579" }
