Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj
IND vs AUS: The fourth match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia was played in Melbourne. In this match, Australia registered a resounding victory by 184 runs and took a 2-1 lead in the 5-match series. Indian batsmen disappointed a lot in the Melbourne Test due to which all the hard work of Jasprit went in vain. Bumrah bowled well in both the innings and took the maximum of 9 wickets including a 5 wicket haul. Bumrah had an important contribution in the only win for the Indian team on the Australia tour. In this series, Bumrah has bowled a total of 141.2 overs in four test matches and has taken 30 wickets during this period. How much burden Team India has on Bumrah’s shoulders can be gauged from the fact that he is the bowler who has bowled the most overs in this series and also has the most wickets in his bag. Pat Cummins was at second place with 136.4 overs and Mitchell Starc was at third place with 131.2 overs.
The video went viral
On the last day of the Melbourne Test, Bumrah was seen bowling more than required. There came a time when he said that he could not bowl anymore because he had no energy left. The video of this incident also went viral on social media. After the end of the Melbourne Test, Indian captain Rohit Sharma also admitted that Jasprit Bumrah bowled a lot. It doesn’t have any message. But in every Test match you are aware of the workload management of the bowlers. He said that if someone is in such great form, you want to try to take advantage of it as much as possible and that is what we are trying to do with Bumrah.
Bumrah is more at risk of injury
Rohit also seemed to agree that one needs to be careful about Bumrah as there is a high risk of him getting injured. He said that there comes a time when you need to step back a little and give a little extra relief to the bowler. So we have been very careful in this matter. Keep talking to Bumrah about how he feels.
