I have decided on No. 4, Bumhrahov’s workload in England tests: Gautam Gambhir

India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir said on Thursday that no final decision has been made yet to fill the essential position No. 4 for India, or which three tests correspond to Pace Bowler Jasprit Bumrah during the upcoming series against England.

Gambhir and the newly appointed Captain SHUBMAN GILL spoke at a press conference before leaving the team to England.

“It is always difficult to replace someone like Jasprit Bumrah. But we have enough quality. I have already said it, including during the masters trophy that if there is no, it is an opportunity for someone else to get off,” Gambhir said.

After announcing the Indian Group for England test Series, the Criket Council in India (BCCI) provided the main selector AJIT AGARKAR updating on the availability of Bumhrah. He confirmed it Bumhrah will not be available for all five tests On the upcoming tour of England because of concerns about working load management.

Bumrah’s participation in all five tests was questioned, especially after he resigned from the race on the captain of the test, referring to worries about workload.

“We did not call what three games he would play. We will discuss with him and then we decide how the test series goes. The series is very important and he knows. We will call after we get there,” he added.

Replacing the Virt Kohli to No. 4 In the Indian test batting, Sachin Tendulkar is probably the biggest challenge since Sachin. Kohli leaves experienced test runs Legacy-9230, 30 tests hundreds and for more than ten years unrivaled consistency. However, the new Indian Test Captain, SHUBMAN GILL, did not reveal any hints of the ranking for the first test for the first test in Leeds on June 20 and explained that the team would undergo a 10 -day camp in London, where the final decisions would be made.
