New Delhi: India is set to fight against Australia in the 2nd T20I and it is a must win match for the hosts as they have already lost first game in Mohali.
The two sides will square off in Nagpur and all eyes will be set on Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah. He has been out of game a very long time and is expected to play anytime in this series.
He was named in the 15-members squad for the Australia T20I series but the bowler did not play in the first game. The ‘experts’ have been saying that his absence has been very harmful for Men in Blue. Earlier, India got kicked out of the Asia Cup 2022 before even reaching the finals and then started the series with a loss.
Rohit Sharma must chose Jasprit Bumrah!!!
For this do-or-die game, India captain Rohit Sharma must get the bowler play in Nagpur as the loss will cost them the entire series. Along with that, Bumrah is also part of the World Cup squad and this series can serve as warm-up for the mega event.
No Pressure on Bumrah – Ravindra Jadeja
Earlier, India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja had said that the team won’t out Jasprit Bumrah under any pressure and he will be given the freedom to decide when he will play.
“We all know what he can do and how important he is to us. There may be some concerns (about the bowling), but that’s not a problem. We have to trust our players, they are the best 15 players in the country and that is why they are in the team,” he had said.
“Jasprit’s not being there makes a lot of difference. He is coming back from injury, it is important for him that he gets enough time to come back and not put too much pressure on himself,” he concluded.
