Team India pacer Jasprit Bumrah reached Rajkot ahead of IND vs ENG 3rd Test. The premium pacer, however, did not take part in the training session at the nets. The 3rd Test is all set to commence from February 15, with the series currently drawn 1-1.
IND vs ENG: Bumrah reaches Rajkot, skips training
As per Times of India, Bumrah reached Rajkot on Wednesday but skipped the training session. The pacer’s actions come amid the chatter over his workload management. It remains to be seen if the pacer will take part in the Rajkot Test, although reports suggest that he will be rested for the 4th game in Ranchi.
With 15 wickets in just two matches, Bumrah has proved to be the difference so far. With the Rajkot pitch being a good batting surface and seemingly favouring pacers, it would be wise for India to play the pacer.
