Dinesh Karthik doubts whether Jasprit Bumrah would like to play the second test in Edgbaston after his performance in Leeds’s test. Before the tour, Bumhrah’s work was working on the topic of discussion, because the pitch itself said he would not play all five matches. During the first testBumrah bowed a total of 43.4 overs and raised five goals.
After the match, India Coach Gautam Gambhir admitted that the Indian Plan with Bumrah will not changeAnd he will play a total of three tests during the series. When he talked to Cricbuzz, Karthik said that the Indian stimulator would like to wait, because it is also expected that Edgbaston will be a flat package and the missing game would give his body more time to relax and recover.
Karthik feels that Bumrah will be eagerly playing in the third Lord’s test, but he admitted that the final decision would be on the team.
“First of all, we ned to see if bumrah is playing. I Doubt Bumrah Want Want to Play at Edgbaston. I WOULD THINK THAT He WOULD WAIT. IT IS FLAT AND IT WOULD GIVE HIS Body More Time, He Has Bowled and Lot of Overs in This Game. I Think He Would Love Playing at Lord’s, But It Is Not About What He Wants, But What The Team Feels He Has To As Well, “Said Karthik.
“No need to play more than one spinner”
India was ineffective in checking the run on day 5, with many feelings that Kuldeep Yadav should be included in the assembly for the second test. Karthik, however, feels that they need only one spinner for the game and felt that playing two would weaken the bat set.
Karthik said India shouldn’t think of England.
“Everything about England tells you that you don’t have to play more than one spinner. If you play two spinners, then it really weakens your launch. They must be very sure that they don’t think England will do.
India and England will face the second test in Edgbaston from July 2.
