Cricket / It is difficult for Bumrah to play in all three formats for India, this veteran gave a unique reason

Cricket | Jeff Thomson On Jasprit Bumrah: Jasprit Bumrah is counted among the best bowlers in the world. He has won many matches for the Indian team on his own. But due to injury, he has not been able to participate in the T20 World Cup 2022. Jeff Thomson, one of the world's greatest fast bowlers, has said that Jasprit Bumrah cannot play in all three formats for a long time. He has given a big reason for this.

This legend gave this statement

Fast bowler of his time Jeff Thomson believes that it is up to Jasprit Bumrah to decide which of the three formats he wants to play. Thomson said in a conversation with PTI, 'Bumrah puts a lot of burden on his body because he plays in all formats and in such a situation he gets injured. Now it is up to him to decide what he wants to do.

Fewer balls to be bowled in limited overs

Speaking further, Jeff Thomson said, 'The audience wants him to play in limited overs cricket. He comes to the stadium to see him bowling in limited overs cricket. He has to bowl only 60 in ODIs and 24 balls in T20 depending on which format he plays.

You have to do this to prolong your career.

Jeff Thomson said, 'In Test cricket, he will need to bowl 15 overs in a day. You can very well understand in which format you should play to prolong your career. The way World Cups are being held every year, limited overs cricket has become no less important.

Can stay on top for only 10 years

Jeff Thomson said that it is up to Bumrah to decide which format is right for him as any fast bowler is only at his peak for 10 years. He said, 'In a player's career, you can only bowl at your peak for a decade. That's why it's important to know what's right for you, beyond the emotions. What is it so that your career progresses in a better way and what is it so that you can serve your country for a long time.

Jeff Thomson said, 'It depends on what the audience wants and what they want. If people want him to bowl in limited overs cricket for India and if he can help India get the World Cup then why should he leave the limited overs format for other formats.
