Jasprit Bumrah India Squad Champions Trophy: Jasprit Bumrah’s injury can also be said to be one of the reasons for the delay in announcing the Indian team for the Champions Trophy. There is about a month left for the Champions Trophy, but there are still question marks over Bumrah’s performance. Now an update has come out that India’s star bowler has been advised to go home and take rest and the decision on his selection will be taken only when the problem of swelling in his waist is completely cured.
A BCCI source quoted by TOI said that Bumrah may have to go to the Center of Excellence in Bengaluru next week. The source said, “Bumrah can go to the Center of Excellence next week, but no date has been fixed yet. He has been advised rest at home to allow the muscles to recover and the swelling to go down on its own. Only after that.” A decision can be taken on the future.”
no rush to return
At present, Bumrah is said to be suffering from waist swelling and there will be no hurry regarding his return. Bumrah has been suffering from back problems in the past too, so the team management would not like to take any decision that may increase his swelling or injury. In the same report of Times of India, it was further stated that bed rest does not sound good. Hopefully this will not be a disc related problem or too much swelling in the muscles.
Meanwhile, let us tell you that ICC had set January 12 as the last date for announcing the Champions Trophy squad, but BCCI had asked for some more time to announce the team. Meanwhile, BCCI Vice President Rajeev Shukla said that Team India will be announced on January 18 or 19. Team India still has time to include Bumrah because after the announcement of the squad, all the teams can make changes in it till 13th February.
