India’s hard-fought 2-2 draw in England was seen as a statement that no individual is above the national team. Mohammed Siraj became the face of this new attitude. The fiery pacer bowled nearly 186 overs across the five tests, fielded tirelessly, and never looked for excuses or rest.

Even Ben Stokes, battling multiple niggles, bowled long spells for England till the final Test, which raised questions among the Indian think tank about why Jasprit Bumrah was played only three Tests when the series was so important.
BCCI set to take action against Jasprit Bumrah!!
A clear message will soon be delivered by the BCCI to the centrally contracted players, especially those playing all three formats, that picking and choosing matches will not be tolerated anymore.
However, the genuine workload management will remain for fast bowlers, but skipping key games without solid reasons won’t be accepted.
The official further explained, “It doesn't mean that workload management will be thrown out of the window, but a more objective approach is expected in the near future. Obviously, fast bowlers' workload needs to be managed, but it can't be accepted that in the name of workload management, people will miss crucial matches.”
Indian fast bowlers' performance in the England tour
Notably, Jasprit Bumrah played only three matches on the England tour and was rested for the two matches to manage his workload due to the history of his injuries. Bumrah was rested for the crucial final Test, but later it emerged that the pacer was nursing an ankle injury.
Jasprit Bumrah scalped 14 wickets from his three Tests in England, where Siraj played all five Tests and finished as the leading wicket-taker with 23 wickets. While Prasidh Krishna took 14 wickets in three Tests, Akash Deep scalped 13 wickets in the same number of matches in England.
