Jaspreet Bumrah’s bad days begin! (PC-PTI)
Team India won the Test series against England, but now big news is coming about Jaspreet Bumrah. There are reports that no longer will be allowed to choose a match in Team India. Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir and Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar have decided about it. Both believe that the culture of the mega star in the team will not work and every player will have to be available for every big match. According to the PTI report, a senior BCCI official said, “It has been talked about and the players involved in the Central Contract have been told that they will not be able to choose the match on their own will.”
Is BCCI angry with Bumrah?
With this decision, such speculations are being made that BCCI has not liked Jaspreet Bumrah not to play in five Tests. Due to this, a finger has also risen on the team working in the Center of Excellence of Bengaluru. According to the report, the senior official of the BCCI has said, it is not that the workload of the players will not be noticed. Workload of fast bowlers is necessary, but under its guise, players cannot stay out of important matches. Let me tell you that Jasprit Bumrah played only 3 Tests on the tour of England, he was out of two Tests.
Team India wants power like Siraj-Stokes
Actually, Team India wants every player to show stamina like Ben Stokes and Mohammad Siraj. Mohammad Siraj put 185.3 overs in five Tests against England. Apart from this, he separated bowling and fielding on the nets. He has brought the fitness level to a new level. The performance of Siraj, the famous Krishna and Akash Deep proved that even the biggest stars are not more than the game. England captain Ben Stokes also put a long spell till the fourth Test despite many problems. This is bound to raise the question whether the workload management is made a shield according to its convenience.
Gautam Gambhir wants this in Team India
Meanwhile, BCCI has posted a video of Gautam Gambhir, in which he is insisting on making team culture. They want such teams whose foundation rests on hard work and improvement in performance. They believe that the players will continue to come, but this thinking and atmosphere of the team should not change. According to Gambhir, if such an atmosphere prevails, then Team India will be successful in the Test team for a long time.
