JASPRIT BUMRAH-A GREAT CAREER THAT MAY FALL SHORT DUE TO INJURIES

Jasprit Bumrah, who was ruled out of the ODI series against Sri Lanka just a day before the first match, will also miss out on the next white ball series against New Zealand and the first two tests against Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy next month. After concluding their ODI series against Sri Lanka, India will face New Zealand in a three-match ODI and a three-match T20I series in the second half of January 2023. Then will take on Australia at home. This is undoubtedly bad news for the Indian cricket team and the fans. The 29-year-old has not featured in the Indian squad since September 2022. With such a big layoff and constant ups and downs in his recovery, the question arises, “Could his career be cut short due to his injuries.”

THE REASON 

As we approach the upcoming ODI World Cup, Jasprit Bumrah is not fit to play, and the obstacles in his path are not cleared. Back problems are not new to him, but his current injury has been his biggest foe. The unorthodox high-arm action, short run-up, and the physical strain at the point of release could be the issues that are making him injury prone. Andy Roberts said," It was the strangest action I have seen on a cricket field." Shoaib Akhtar also stated, "His bowling is based on his frontal action. Players with that action bowl with their backs and shoulder speed. We used to be side-on, and that used to compensate (for the pressure on the back). A front-on action has no compensation, and with that action, when the back gives in, you can't escape it irrespective of how much you try."
