Former India batsman Mohammad Kaif has responded to Jasprit Bumrah after the latter dismissed his criticism in a social media post.
It all started when Mohammad Kaif took to X (formerly Twitter) to highlight that Bumrah has not been giving his best to avoid injury.
The former cricketer-turned-commentator said that Bumrah has been bowling in the early part of the innings under Suryakumar Yadav's captaincy to avoid any injury.
Mohammad Kaif also stated that it was not the same case under Rohit Sharma's captaincy, indirectly hinting that the pacer might be undermining the current captaincy.
"Bumrah under Rohit would generally bowl overs 1, 13, 17, 19. Under Surya, in Asia Cup, he bowled a three-over spell at the start. To avoid injury, Bumrah these days prefers to bowl while his body is warmed up," wrote Mohammad Kaif on X.
Bumrah snapped back
He further stated that the strategy of bowling three overs at the start has been helping the opposition batters, writing: 1 over of Bumrah in the remaining 14 overs is a huge relief for batters. Against stronger teams at the World Cup, this could hurt India."
However, Jasprit Bumrah not only disagreed with Kaif's observation but also responded to it on social media. Re-sharing Kaif's post, Bumrah wrote: "Inaccurate before inaccurate again."

"Please take this as a cricketing observation from a well-wisher and an admirer. You are Indian cricket's biggest match-winner and I know what it takes to give it all when on field wearing India colours," Kaif wrote on X.
