At the same time, Bumrah said he had to listen to his body, especially after facing discomfort in his back, for which he went for scans on day two. Bumrah\u2019s absence meant India didn\u2019t have their bowling mainstay in defending 162, as Australia won by six wickets in Sydney to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series 3-1.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cA little frustrating but sometimes you have to respect your body, and you can't fight your body. Sometimes you have to accept. Would have loved to bowl on the spiciest wicket of the series. Just had a little discomfort after the first innings,\u201d said Bumrah in the post-match presentation ceremony.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Asked about the mood in the Indian camp before day three\u2019s play, Bumrah stated, \u201cThe chatter was about belief. The other bowlers stepped up in the first innings as well. This morning the chat was also about belief. Lots of ifs and buts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThe whole series was well fought. Today also we were there. It's not like it was totally one-sided. Whichever team holds their nerve and sticks together will win. It was a well-fought series.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bumrah also elaborated on the lessons India would take from the series. \"Being in the game for longer, creating pressure, absorbing pressure, and playing to the situation. In Test cricket you have to adapt, and these learnings will help us in the future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
