Bumrah\u2019s struggle continued in the Mumbai Indians\u2019 clash against Lucknow Super Giants at the Wankhede Stadium, where he returned with figures of 0\/45, marking the seventh instance this season when he has gone wicketless.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe are in that space that the management, or coach, or even captain - Surya is pretty close to him, he is the vice-captain of the squad - and Rohit is around, they can probably honestly sit and have a chat. Ask him: \u2018Are you feeling 100% from within?\u2019\u2018Do you want to take a break for a game or so?\u2019 So that he comes back fresh. That is something you can probably ask him and expect him to answer you honestly,\u201d Veda said on ESPNcricinfo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Despite Bumrah\u2019s off day, the Mumbai Indians registered a six-wicket win, successfully chasing down 229 runs in 18.4 overs, riding on a 143-run opening partnership between Rohit Sharma (84) and Ryan Rickelton (83).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Former India cricketer Sanjay Bangar echoed similar concerns, suggesting that the team management may need to take a call depending on their priorities for the remainder of the tournament.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
