Jasprit Bumrah had a memorable recent tour to Australia as he ended the five-match Test series as the leading wicket-taker with 32 scalps to his name but India lost the series.
Bumrah’s incredible efforts went in vain as India lost the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the first time after 10 years. The star pacer even suffered an injury scare during the fifth Test in Sydney and missed the majority of the action due to his back issue.

The step has been taken as a precautionary measure keeping an on the ICC Champions Trophy, starting from February 19.
