IND vs ENG / Rahane made a big statement about Bumrah, said- the decision he took was really difficult to take

IND vs ENG: Recently, the Indian cricket team completed its tour of England, where the five-Test series ended in a 2-2 draw. The performance of the Indian batsmen and fast bowlers was excellent on this tour, in which Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj particularly impressed. Especially Bumrah's decision regarding workload management caught everyone's attention, which was also praised by former Indian batsman Ajinkya Rahane.

Bumrah's workload management: An exemplary decision

Even before the start of the series, Jasprit Bumrah had made it clear that he would play only three Test matches so that his workload could be controlled. He had already informed the captain and team management about this decision. Ajinkya Rahane praised this decision on his YouTube channel and said, "Bumrah kept a lot of clarity from the beginning, which I found most impressive. This is very important for a captain as it makes it easier to make strategies." Rahane also told that it is not easy to take such a decision in the Indian team. Many times players are also dropped from the team due to such decisions. Bumrah's clarity and professional attitude not only showed his commitment, but also showed how seriously he takes his fitness and long career.

Bumrah's brilliant performance

Bumrah took part in the first, third and fourth Test matches in the series against England. In these three matches, he bowled 119.4 overs and took a total of 14 wickets at an average of 26. During this, he also did the feat of taking five wickets in an innings twice. His bowling troubled the England batsmen on many occasions. Just before the second day of the Oval Test, the BCCI decided to release him, ensuring that he could maintain his fitness.

Mohammad Siraj also had a strong performance

Along with Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj also impressed everyone with his bowling in this series. His speed and swing troubled the England batsmen a lot. The Indian fast bowling attack showed on this tour that they can be as effective in foreign conditions as they are on home grounds.

Series result and future path

This series, which ended in a 2-2 draw, was positive for the Indian team in many ways. The batsmen scored runs in difficult conditions, while the bowlers took wickets at crucial moments. Workload management of a player like Bumrah and bowlers like Siraj is a great example
