Under the captaincy of Shubman Gill, the Indian cricket team lost the first Test against England, while the top order in both the fairies batted amazing. Except Jasprit Bumrah, no one was able to impress even in bowling, but now the difficulty is that Bumrah will also play only 2 Tests. Head coach Gautam Gambhir has also confirmed that he will play a total of 3 Tests in this tour. Former Indian cricketer Akash Chopra has raised the question about this.
Due to the workload, Jasprit Bumrah will play only 3 Tests in the 5 -match series, one of which he has played. Even before the series started, Bumrah had told this, but now Gautam Gambhir has officially told it. Akash Chopra, while sharing the video on his YouTube channel, questioned it. He said that what was the need to tell the world to how many matches he would play.
What did Akash Chopra say about Jaspreet Bumrah?
“Bumrah Saab said that I will play only 3 Tests. But I am wondering what was so needed to tell why it was told to the world. Can it not be kept secret. Do not tell, we do not even announce our team. We do not tell you the playing 11 before the toss, then why do we need to tell them again and again that we will let them think (Jasprit Brahma) 3 and you can think of them. Whatever you want, you will play only 2 out of the remaining 4 matches, if you have also played the second test, then you will not know why India wants to tell it, what can be the reason behind it? “
It is reported that Jasprit Bumrah will not play in the second Test to be held in Birmingham, he will play in the third and then in the last Test of the series. After the first Test, Gambhir confirmed that there will be no change in the plan, he will play only 3 Tests. If we look at the first Test, it seems difficult that without Bumrah, the bowlers of India will be able to put pressure on the England batsmen.
The second Test will be played in Birmingham from 2 July. The Indian cricket team has never won a Test match on this ground. Shubman Gill and Team will be eyeing history. According to Indian time, the match will start at 3:30 pm.
