Retirement: A big news is coming out from Indian cricket. A young Indian fast bowler can announce a retirement from Test cricket on August 4. This news is surprising for cricket lovers, as this player is currently being considered in the major phase of his career. So let us tell you who is this Indian bowler… ..
Who is this bowler?
Recently, according to the news that is going viral on social media and an Instagram post, it is being speculated that this bowler may be none other than Jasprit Bumrah. Although no official confirmation has been made by Bumrah yet, the comments of cricket experts and former players have emphasized this possibility.
Former Team India player Mohammad Kaif also said in his statement that, “Bumrah’s body is no longer in a position to bear the toughness of Test cricket for a long time. In such a situation, if he calls the Test format a retirement, I will not be surprised.”
Why are you taking retirement?
Let me tell you, Indian fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah has been struggling with injuries continuously for the last few years. He stayed away from cricket for a long time, especially due to a back injury. In such a situation, it is being feared that Bumrah has made up his mind to leave the Test format to keep his career longer.
His bowling style is fast and energetic, which puts extra pressure on the body. Experts believe that separation from Test cricket to play limited overs for longer can be a sensible decision.
In the past too many players have retired at a young age
Bumrah is not the only player who has said goodbye to Test cricket at an early age. Earlier, players like Suresh Raina, Irfan Pathan, Varun Aaron have also retired from international cricket at a relatively young age. Now if Bumrah declares retirement from the Test on August 4, it would be another example of how injuries and workload management players are forcing players to take quick decisions.
Fans and experts respond
There is a mixed response to this news on social media. Some fans are disappointed that India will lose a great Test bowler so soon, while some people are calling Bumrah’s decision a sensible step, especially given their utility in T20 World Cup and ODI.
However, there is no official confirmation about the fact that Bumrah will retire from Test cricket on August 4, but signs and discussions are pointing to the same.
