‘Jasprit Bumrah Might Retire Early from the Tests, That's My Gut Feeling’: Mohammad Kaif

Jasprit Bumrah’s Performance in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 2025

As predicted earlier, Jasprit Bumrah might be able to play 3 matches in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 2025 due to workload. Jasprit Bumrah's fitness is becoming a big problem for him; that is why he was advised to take a rest for two matches. The Indian Cricket Board is also concerned about his fitness. This is the reason they pay special attention to workload management for him, because the kind of game Jasprit Bumrah has shown for the Indian team, they definitely want to see him in the team for a long time. 

Jasprit Bumrah took five wickets in the first match of the Anderson Tendulkar Trophy; he remained rested in the second match. In the third match, he again performed well by taking 7 wickets, but in the fourth match, when Team India needed wickets the most, Jasprit Bumrah managed to take only two wickets by bowling 33 overs in the second innings of the match. In this series, Team India was successful in winning the only match in which Jasprit Bumrah was not playing. While Jasprit Bumrah was able to take only two wickets in the fourth match, even in the second innings of the first match, Jasprit Bumrah could not perform anything special, and he did not get even a single wicket. Despite not giving a good performance in two innings, Bumrah is the highest wicket-taker for India in this series, and after Ben Stokes' 17 wickets, he is the second-highest wicket-taker in the series with 14 wickets. There is every possibility that Bumrah will not play the fifth match of the series.
