Bumrah Break Could Benefit India at Edgbaston, Says Panesar

Monty Panesar has weighed in on India’s strategy for the Edgbaston Test, suggesting that resting Jasprit Bumrah could be beneficial. The world’s number one bowler, Bumrah, took 5 wickets in the first innings of the previous match but was wicketless in the second as England chased down a large target. Panesar believes that resting Bumrah might allow India’s bowling attack to be better suited to the conditions at Edgbaston. The team management is reportedly cautious about Bumrah’s workload. Arshdeep Singh and Akash Deep’s recent practice sessions may hint at the team’s strategy, potentially focusing on reverse swing.
