The Indian cricket fans were recently treated to a dream comeback of their star pacer, Jasprit Bumrah. It is worth mentioning that Bumrah was out of the Indian team for a brief period of time due to persistent back issues that eventually led him to undergo surgery in New Zealand.

Chaminda Vaas’ valuable piece of advice for Jasprit Bumrah
In his interaction with the press, Vaas acknowledged Bumrah’s unique talent as a seam bowler and emphasized the importance of managing his workload intelligently. Vaas emphasized that players like Bumrah, with their distinctive bowling actions, should not be overburdened by playing in all three formats of the game. Instead, he advocated for a thoughtful approach that identifies the most suitable format for such individuals and manages their participation accordingly.
“Players like Jasprit Bumrah have a unique action, and we must protect individuals of such calibre. They can’t play in all formats. We need to identify the suitable format and manage their participation accordingly,” stressed Vaas, underlining the need to preserve Bumrah’s fitness and longevity.

Beyond the Bumrah advisory, Vaas also shared his insights on Indian cricket’s power duo of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. The veteran seamer hailed Kohli as a special player, recognizing his extraordinary contributions to the game over the past decade. He expressed confidence that both Kohli and Rohit Sharma would bring their A-game to the ODI World Cup, delighting fans around the world.
“We all know that Virat is special player and the way he performed for the last decade is extraordinary. Even Rohit, I’m pretty sure that they will give their 100% playing for India. All the fans are waiting to see these two performing. And I’m sure that they will go all out and trying to do well for India,” Vaas lauded Kohli and Rohit.
