IND vs Eng 5th Test: Why is Jaspreet Bumrah not playing a decisive match in oval? , Cricket news

As India prepares for the fifth and final test against England at the Oval, a big name is missing from the XI to play in Jasprit Bumrah. Star Fast Baller, who played an important role in India’s performance in this series, has been abandoned as part of the pre -planned workload management strategy.Bumrah had agreed to feature in just three matches in the five-test series, and with the completion of that commitment, the management has chosen her to rest for the final game. Head coach Gautam Gambhir clearly stated earlier that Bumrah would not play the entire series, keeping in mind the need to manage his body and fitness through a pack calendar. Prasad Krishna has come to play with rest with Bumrah. India has made a total of four changes. Akash Deep has replaced Ansul Kamboj, Karun Nair has come for Shardul Thakur, and Dhruv Jurael takes the gloves in place of the injured Rishabh Pant.

On the other hand, England are also without their Captain Ben Stokes, which determines the platform for an attractive clash despite the weather concerns. The rain is expected to have a major impact, and England’s 2–1 leading, expecting a strong performance to level the India series. Bumrah’s absence is a shock, but the team will aim to rally for a final push with resources in hand. His comfort player reflects a long -term view on the player management, even the stakes remain high in the oval.
