In the third match of the five-Test series, hosts England defeated Team India by 22 runs and took a 2–1 lead in this series. After this defeat at Lord’s, now Team India will have to show a strong game in the Manchester Test to return. But before this fourth Test match, there is only one question on the tongue of cricket fans and experts- will Jaspreet Bumrah play in Manchester?

Relaxation being given due to workload management
Bumrah performed a strong performance from the beginning of this series. He took 5-5 wickets in the first leads and then in the Lord’s Test. In Lord’s, he also took two wickets in the second innings. His deadly bowling disturbed the England batsmen. However, even before the series started, the Indian team management made it clear that Bumrah would not be fed in all five Tests keeping in mind his workload.
After playing in the first Test, Bumrah was rested from the second Test match played in Edgbaston. Although despite this, India won the match and showed that the team has depth, but Bumrah’s presence gives more strength to bowling. Especially after trailing in the series, their need will be very high in the fourth Test. But whether Team India will give them a rest or put them, everyone’s eyes are on it. As far as Gill’s reply, it is clear that the Indian team does not want to fully expose its strategy.
