Will he be able to be a part of the team for the next two Tests of this four-match series? To answer this, who can be a better person than Team India captain Rohit Sharma. Rohit was asked a question related to the availability of the 29-year-old Indian fast bowler in the team. Rohit gave a belated answer to this. He said that he hopes that Bumrah returns to the team. Please tell that Bumrah has not played any international match since September last year. He is currently practicing bowling at the nets of the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore.

On the question of Bumrah's return to the field, Rohit said, "I cannot say anything with confidence about Bumrah at the moment. Obviously he is not playing in the first two Tests. I think... I don't think, but I Hopefully, he will be able to play the next two Tests against Australia. We don't want to take any risk with his back injury. We still have a lot of matches to play after that."

Captain Rohit told that he is constantly talking to the physio and doctor of NCA about Bumrah. The medical team of the Cricket Board of India (BCCI) will definitely give him as much time as is necessary. Rohit gave all this information in the post match press conference after winning the ODI series against New Zealand 3-0.

Let us tell you that fast bowler Bumrah had a lower back stress fracture after the tour of England last year, after which he could not participate in the Asia Cup 2022. However, to increase the edge of the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2022, he was included in the team for the T20 series against Australia just before that. He was injured again in the middle of the series and was ruled out of the team indefinitely.

However, he was expected to return to the team in the ODI series against Sri Lanka this month. His name was also announced for this series but later he was dropped.
