India’s Decision on Jasprit Bumrah’s Test Performance

• Jasprit Bumrah, a standout performer in two Tests, is in India’s hands as the team heads to Manchester.

• Bumrah has bowled 43.4 overs in Leeds and claimed a five-fer in the first innings before being rested in Birmingham.

• He returned to Lord’s for the third Test, picking up seven wickets and bowling 43 overs.

• Former India fast bowler Irfan Pathan believes Bumrah should play in Manchester due to the series on the line.

• Bumrah has maintained an average swing angle of 1.031 degrees in the series, just behind Nitish Kumar Reddy and Harry Brook.

• Irfan believes that changing a player’s game in a crunch situation is not ideal for any team.

• The Indian team will train at the Beckenham County ground on Thursday, where Bumrah is expected to have a full session.
