Jasprit Bumrah is currently sidelined with a knee injury he suffered during the ODI series against England last month. He was initially included in India’s squad for the two-Test series against Sri Lanka. However, the medical team ruled him out of the series as a precaution and decided not to risk his fitness further.
"There is no doubt that he is the best in the world at the moment. He has been playing a lot of cricket. Bumrah has played T20s, 50-over cricket and the IPL. He has a unique action. The way he plays and bowls a lot of overs can tend to lead to injuries. But I think India will have a plan for the next 50-over World Cup."

Bumrah will miss both Tests against Sri Lanka. India will begin the series at the Galle International Stadium on August 15, while the second Test is scheduled to take place at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo from August 23.
Jasprit Bumrah's Recovery Timeline
There is no confirmed timeline for Bumrah’s return from his latest knee injury. The fast bowler is currently undergoing rehabilitation at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru to regain his full fitness.
India have also been building more depth in their pace department. Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh remain senior options, while Harshit Rana, Prince Yadav, Prasidh Krishna and Gurnoor Brar provide younger alternatives who can be developed across formats.
India have more room to manage Bumrah without rushing him back. With a packed international schedule ahead, the team can rotate its fast bowlers and give Bumrah the recovery time needed before major tournaments.
