Former India coach Ravi Shastri has cautioned against giving Jasprit Bumrah five Tests in a row in England, saying the premier pacer should be given a break after two matches and the freedom to pick the game for adequate rest.
DUBAI: Former India coach Ravi Shastri has cautioned against giving Jasprit Bumrah five Tests in a row in England, saying the premier pacer should be given a break after two matches and the freedom to pick the game for adequate rest.
India will clash with England in an away series, beginning at Headingley on June 20, marking the beginning of the new World Test Championship (2025-27) cycle.
The back injury Bumrah suffered during the Australia tour had kept him out of Champions Trophy. The star bowler made a return to competitive cricket during the ongoing IPL, competing for Mumbai Indians.
"I would be very, very careful (with Bumrah). I would give him two Test matches at a time and then wait for the break," said Shastri in the latest issue of the ICC Review.
