Jasprit Bumrah IND vs NZ 3rd Test: The third and last Test match of India vs New Zealand Test series is to be played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from 1st November. Team India is already trailing 0-2 in the series and considering the World Test Championship final, the Indian team would like to win this match at any cost. But meanwhile, there is speculation that Jasprit Bumrah will be rested for the third test. In such a situation, a young bowler can make his international debut in place of Bumrah.
Who will replace Jasprit Bumrah?
If Jasprit Bumrah is rested, then KKR star bowler Harshit Rana can take his place. Earlier, Harshit was supposed to make his international debut in the last T20 match against Bangladesh, but due to illness he had to sit out. Now he is going to get a gift in the form of international debut for his brilliant performance for Delhi in Ranji Trophy.
Harshit Rana recently played an important role in Delhi’s victory against Assam. This star bowler of KKR created a sensation by taking 5 wickets in the first innings and also took 2 important wickets in the second innings. Harshit became the topic of discussion when he stunned everyone by playing a half-century of 59 runs during the first innings of Delhi.
Why is Jasprit Bumrah out?
Since the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is approaching, the selectors want to manage his workload properly. It is possible that now Bumrah can be seen playing directly on the Australian tour. On the other hand, the management of Team India is supporting Harshit Rana a lot. Because he has also got a place in the Indian squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy starting in November. Five tests will be played between India and Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and this series will start from November 22.
