Having played 24 Tests since 2023, the pacer is 3rd in the list of bowlers with most overs

- FIROZ MIRZA @MANCHESTER

Ever since India's tour of England began, Jasprit Bumrah's workload management has assumed national importance. Amid all the chatter on pacers' workload and an urgent need to manage them, Mohammed Siraj has quietly toiled in the whites for three back-to-back Tests. But then, it's not a surprise. Because it's what he does.

Since the beginning of 2023, the pacer has featured in 24 out of 27 long format games India has played. In terms of overs bowled, he's third in the list (only pacers) with 569.4, the most by an Indian. Australia skipper Pat Cummins (721.2 overs) and his teammate Mitchell Starc (665.1) are placed at No. 1 and 2 respectively.
