Would Love Bumrah To Play All Games; But Not Advisable Due To Workload Of Last Three Games: Rathour
JSCA International Stadium: With India opting to rest fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah for the upcoming fourth Test against England starting on Friday at the JSCA International Stadium, it means that the hosts’ have an uphill task at their hands in a bid to seal the series here.
Batting coach Vikram Rathour said the team would have loved for Bumrah, the leading wicket-taker in the series with 17 scalps, to play all matches, but pointed out the need to manage the workload of India’s vice-captain, citing the 80.5 overs he’s bowled in the first three games.
“Every Test match is crucial, to be honest. With WTC points, every game is crucial. Even we would love to have Bumrah play all the games. But unfortunately, that is not very advisable because of the workload he has had in the last three games. He has bowled well and with a lot of heart and effort."
