India’s veteran star fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah for five matches against England Test seriesWill not play all matches in. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar has already made it clear as he had a stress reaction in the back in the Border Gavaskar Trophy against Australia in January. Due to which he had to stay out of the field for a long time and could not play even in the Champius Trophy.
Dinesh Karthik has made a big prediction about which Test match will play in England, who made a brilliant comeback in IPL 2025. Talking in Sky Sports Podcast, Karthik said, “The things I have heard, it seems that Bumrah has been prepared to play three Tests first, second and fourth Test. There is a good break between these three matches, so that he can recover.” Karthik also said that if India is stuck on series 2-1 after the fourth Test, whether India is ahead or behind, I will not be surprised to ask Bumrah to play for the fifth Test.
Let me tell you, Bumrah’s record in England has also been excellent. He has taken 37 wickets in 9 Tests at an average of 26.27. Their economy has been 2.72 and strike rate 57.8, which reflects their impact with the Dux ball.
