New Delhi: India’s leading fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah, will be observing from the stands as Rohit Sharma’s team takes on Pakistan in a crucial Champions Trophy clash at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.
Bumrah, originally included in the squad, had to be substituted after not fully recovering from the back injury he picked up during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
His absence is a major setback for India’s bowling unit, as his deadly yorkers and proficiency in the death overs have consistently posed challenges for opposition teams. Young pacer Harshit Rana has been called up as his replacement, but India will undoubtedly feel the absence of their most dependable fast bowler in this critical match.
