‘If Bumrah is not fit, even a score of 200 is not enough’, Gavaskar’s big statement on the fitness of the fast bowler
Jasprit Bumrah and Sunil Gavaskar
Sunil Gavaskar On Jasprit Bumrah: Indian team’s regular captain Rohit Sharma did not play. In his place, fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah took over the responsibility of captaincy. But on the very next day, Team India got a big blow. When Bumrah walked out of the field in the middle of the match. After this he was seen going outside the stadium for a scan with the medical staff of Team India. A problem has surfaced in his back. Team India has so far scored 141 runs at the loss of 6 wickets in its second innings and its total lead has become 145 runs.
Sunil Gavaskar said a big thing
Sunil Gavaskar told Star Sports that if India scores 40 more runs and the score remains 185, then there is a chance of victory but everything will depend on Bumrah’s fitness. If he remains fit then 140-150 runs will be enough. But if he is not fit then even 200 runs is not enough. One thing I liked was that after returning he seemed fine and his body language was not giving any indication to the Australian team. It is important to maintain confidentiality. As a strategy, you don’t want to tell whether he will be able to bowl tomorrow or not. Australian batsmen are not able to play it.
Jasprit Bumrah had to leave the field for scanning after lunch after bowling one over on the second day. He was feeling uncomfortable. After the scan he returned to the dressing room. Indian fast bowler Prasidh Krishna told that he has a problem in his back. He also said that the medical team will be able to give any update after the scan reports.
Has taken more than 30 wickets in the series
Jasprit Bumrah is bowling amazingly in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. He has proved to be the biggest match winner for the team. In the first match, he captained Team India and took a total of 8 wickets. Due to his brilliant performance, Team India was successful in winning the match by 295 runs. Now a total of 32 wickets have been taken so far in the series.
