Bhubaneswar : In a good news for the fans, Team India’s premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah is close to regaining full-fitness. The unorthodox pacer is in line to tour with the Indian white-ball team for the T20Is in Ireland next month.
Bumrah is currently training at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru. The speedster has been gradually increasing his workload.
The pacer underwent a back surgery in March. He had resumed bowling last month after successfully undergoing rehabilitation at the NCA. His rehab programme has been continuing under the watchful eyes of VVS Laxman. Bumrah is currently bowling at full throttle at the nets. He is bowling 8-10 overs on a regular basis.
As per reports, Bumrah might make a return to Team India in its three-match T20I series in Ireland which will take place next month.
The bowling mainstay of the Indian team last appeared for the side in a T20I series against Australia in September last year. Several experts feel that it was a hurried comeback as the pacer struggled with back injury. He was eventually ruled out of the T20 World Cup later in this year and it pegged India severely in the mega event.
