Jasprit Bumrah: On The Road To Recovery
In a massive boost for the Indian cricket team and its fans, Jasprit Bumrah is on his way to full recovery. The fast bowler, who was out of action for nearly a year due to a back injury, is currently at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) and bowling 8-10 overs a day. With India set to play in the Asia Cup and the ODI World Cup 2023, Bumrah is expected to feature in both. If all goes according to plan, the right-arm fast bowler could also make a comeback during the Ireland series.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selectors will take a decision on whether the Mumbai Indians pacer will play in the three-match T20 series in Ireland. Last time, the NCA hurried Bumrah’s return ahead of the T20 World Cup and it backfired as he missed the showpiece event, the Border Gavaskar Trophy, and the WTC final. While India managed to win the BGT series comfortably, it displayed shambolic performances in the T20 World Cup semi-finals and the WTC final.
It was in July 2022 that Bumrah had resumed training after being sidelined for nearly a year due to a back injury. He had to undergo a surgery and was under rehabilitation at the NCA in Bengaluru. He has been training rigorously since then and is now ready to resume his international career.

The Indian cricket team is expected to benefit from the return of Bumrah, who has been one of the most successful bowlers in the last few years. He has been a key member of the team in all three formats and his return will be a huge boost for the team. The BCCI selectors will have to decide whether to include him in the squad for the Ireland series, which will be a good opportunity for him to get back into the rhythm of international cricket.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Jasprit Bumrah is on the road to recovery and is likely to make a comeback in the Ireland series. His return will be a big boost for the Indian cricket team as they prepare for the Asia Cup and the ODI World Cup 2023. The BCCI selectors will have to decide whether to include him in the squad for the Ireland series, which will be a good opportunity for him to get back into the rhythm of international cricket.
