Cricket Matches: Without a question, Jasprit Bumrah leads India’s bowling assault. Despite being a crucial member of the Indian team, the 29-year-old has a history of injuries that have kept him from playing. Bumrah’s back issue from July 2022 has prevented him from playing for his country in international cricket.
Shoaib Akhtar, who was speaking about the same great Pakistani pacer, intervened to offer his opinion on Bumrah’s predicament. He discussed a variety of subjects, including Bumrah’s action and why it is not long-term viable.
“He loads up before delivering the bowl because of his front-on movement, which puts a lot of strain on his spinal cord. We used to bowl side-on, and bowlers like myself could use our hips, thighs, and left hand as support, which served as a form of compensation (for the pressure on the back). Jasprit, regrettably, lacks that leverage,” Akhtar told Sports Tak.
“A front-on action has no room for compensating, and when the back caves in, you are stuck there no matter how hard you try. He will wear out due to the volume of cricket he has played. When he was playing in the IPL, he frequently appeared in all three formats. His action is not very resilient,” he added.
I believe India could have handled him more effectively: Akhtar On Bumrah
Akhtar also discussed the Indian team’s management of their best bowler. The 47-year-old expressed his opinion that India should have handled Bumrah more effectively. declaring that fewer matches might help him extend his career.
“It’s terrible because I believe India could have handled him more effectively. And he himself ought to have known better which formats he ought to use and which he ought to omit. If I had been in charge, I would have instructed him to play just three of the five ODIs, and only the most important one. His career will last longer with more training and fewer games. He requires a lot of back muscle,” Akhtar said.
