Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has provided a reassuring update on Jasprit Bumrah’s availability ahead of the crucial fourth Test against England, set to begin on July 23 at Old Trafford in Manchester. Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Siraj confirmed that, as far as he knows, the pace spearhead will be back in action.
“Jassi bhai toh khelege, jitna pata hai.” Siraj stated with a smile, referring to Bumrah by his popular nickname. The update comes as welcome news for Indian fans, especially with the series delicately poised. Bumrah had been rested for the second Test as part of a workload management plan and his return is expected to add significant firepower to the Indian bowling attack.
India will be eager to level the five-match series, with England currently leading 2-1. The return of Bumrah could tilt the balance in the visitors’ favor as they prepare for the high-stakes encounter in Manchester.
