The Indian team has been announced for the Test series between India and West Indies to be played next month. At the same time, the name of Jaspreet Bumrah is also included in this squad. But from now on, the workload management of Jaspreet Bumrah is being discussed. Because earlier during the England tour, Bumrah played only three matches out of five Tests. At the same time, these days Bumrah is playing in the T20 Asia Cup in 2025, which has reached India in the final.
Let me tell you, now there was speculation that Bumrah could be rested in the two -Test series against the West Indies four days after the final of the Asia Cup 2025. However, the BCCI on Thursday put a stop to these speculation and Bumrah has been included in the Indian squad for the domestic series against the West Indies. During this time, Bumrah will play a match against the West Indies or two, Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar has responded to this.
Agarkar told the press conference on Thursday that Bumrah India Verses are available for both matches of the West Indies Test series. The Chief Selector said that, Bumrah wants to play both matches against the West Indies. These teams are for both Tests and they will play both. After the tour of England, he got a good break and did not play the fifth Test. One month or five weeks breaks. The tournament (Asia Cup) also lasted at a lot of intervals till last week. He is ready and eager to play both Test matches. Significantly, in the group stage of the Asia Cup, the match against Oman was rested. He can also be rested in the last Super-4 match against Sri Lanka on Friday.
Ajit Agarkar further said that, there will be caution but the team comes first. He said that, Jaspreet Bumrah is usually discussed with physio, trainer and coach. We want him to do well. He is a great performance but we have to be careful. However, the team comes first.
