Why does Jaspreet Bumrah need workload management? Ex-Aus vet said:

Delhi: The workload management of the Indian team’s fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has been discussed for a long time in the cricket world. Due to his special talent and ability to win the match, Team India is using him and using him. As part of this strategy, the decision to play only three Tests in England tour was already taken. For this reason, Bumrah was not fed in the Oval Test, while on the green pitch there he could harass the England batsmen.

Macgra took Bumrah’s side

Australia’s great fast bowler Glenn McGrag believes that it is necessary to feed a player like Bumrah in every match as he can turn the match. But due to his unique bowling style, there is more pressure on his body. For this reason, they remain at risk of injury.

“They have different types of bowling style, which affects the body more.”
Macgra said that whenever Bumrah played in Australia, the match was for thorn. But by playing the match continuously, he started having a problem of injury. Therefore, the captain, the team management and Bumrah himself have to decide how much he can play.

Could the management be better by throwing less overs?

When asked if Bumrah’s number of overs could be managed better, McGrag said, “You want to bowl your best bowler in a long spell. If he would put only 3-4 overs, the batsman will easily cross the phase.” He said that India will have to prepare more fast bowlers who can share the workload with Bumrah.

Fast bowlers need off-season

Macgra also said that if the fast bowlers do not get a few months break every year, then their fitness is affected. Most players of India play cricket throughout the year, due to which they do not get relief in the true sense.

Sure to hurt

Macgra explained that a good bowler needs good bowling action, strong body and off-field training. He also said that there can be some players who can bowl every day, but 99.9% fast bowlers need a break.
