India’s star pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who last featured during a competitive match in January this year, would be missing MI’s fourth group stage match against LSG at their backyard.
According to reports, the pacer, who has taken 165 wickets after playing in 133 IPL matches till now, won’t just miss the upcoming clash against LSG but is highly likely to be ruled out from the much-awaited clash against RCB in Mumbai next week.
The report stated that Bumrah is getting near to doing the final rounds of fitness testing before he is declared fit at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence. With a long and important five-match Test series against England scheduled immediately after the IPL, Bumrah himself and the BCCI too have been very careful and have treaded the recovery path very cautiously.
