If They Go 2-0 Down, It Could Be An Uphill Task: Shastri Wants India To Reconsider Resting Bumrah

By IANS News June 25, 2025 • 12:08 PM View: 405

New Delhi: Ravi Shastri, the former India head coach, believes the side might need to rethink their plan of resting Jasprit Bumrah if they go 2-0 behind to England in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series.

In India’s five-wicket defeat to England at Headingley, Bumrah recorded match figures of 5-140 from 43.4 overs – with all five of his scalps coming in the first innings.

"If he was looking at a rest, you may have to think twice. If you don't have him and then go 2-0 down it could be an uphill task," said Shastri on Sky Sports.
