Veteran fast bowler of the Indian team Jaspreet Bumrah has not been seen participating in many important series due to injury. Whenever Jasprit Bumrah gets injured and is unable to participate in a series or tournament, then many people do evil to him fiercely. All critics give big statements about the Indian player. However, whenever Bumrah returns to India, the same people expect them to perform well in international cricket. Currently, Indian players are playing in the first Test match Leeds against England and he took 5 wickets while bowling well in the first innings of the host. This is his 14th five wicket hall. After taking 5 wickets in Leeds, Jaspreet Bumrah has given a befitting reply to critics. He has said that he does not mean anything about what people are saying about him.
Career ends in 8 months… Bumrah’s response
Jasprit Bumrah said, ‘In so many years people have said that I will play only 8 months and some have said that I can play for 10 months. But now I have completed 10 years in international cricket and 12 to 13 years in IPL. Still, when I am injured, people say that I am over. Let them say that I will do my own work. It will start again every 4 months, but as long as the above one, I will play. I work hard and leave everything on the one above.
Bumrah further said, ‘Whatever people say is not under my control. In the headline, the viewership increases with my name but I do not mean anything. Talking about the Handingley Cricket Ground, the wicket here is very good and due to the weather, the new ball will be swing and you expect this in Test cricket.
Parties kept on bad fielding
On the second and third day of the first Test game against England, the players of Team India had left many catches and about this, the fast bowler said, ‘Yes, I felt bad for a while but you cannot cry silently. You have to move the game forward. Sometimes it becomes difficult to understand the ball and no player deliberately leaves a catch. This happens, that’s why I do not want to put any pressure on anyone. I am doing my work well and ticking all the boxes.
In the match against England, Team India batted first and scored 465 runs in their first innings, in response to which the host scored 471 runs. By the end of the third day’s play, the Indian team has scored 90 runs losing two wickets in their second innings. He has taken a lead of 96 runs.
