India’s pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah is now being handled very carefully by the BCCI and team management as preparations begin for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2027.
The Indian think tank does not want to put extra pressure on Bumrah’s body anymore, and because of that, his matches are expected to be managed smartly over the next few months.
Bumrah has been rested for the upcoming one-off Test and three-match ODI series against Afghanistan as part of the workload management after a hectic schedule.
Now, a BCCI source revealed, as quoted by Cricblogger, that Jasprit Bumrah is likely to return during India’s ODI series against England. The plan is to give the fast bowler proper one and a half months of rest so that he remains fully fresh for India’s buildup for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2027.

There is also a chance that Bumrah could get even more rest if the medical team feels his body needs extra recovery time. The support staff does not want to take any risk with injuries, especially because fast bowlers often face fitness problems after long seasons.
The selection committee had adopted a similar workload-management approach ahead of the 2026 T20 World Cup at home. At that time, Bumrah played fewer ODIs compared to T20Is.
However, the Indian fast bowler will still be available for major Test series against strong teams like the Australian national cricket team, the English cricket team, the New Zealand national cricket team, and the South African national cricket team.
Questions raised over Jasprit Bumrah continue IPL 2026 participation
Meanwhile, many have not been happy with Bumrah’s continued involvement with Mumbai Indians in the ongoing IPL 2026 even after the team went out of the playoff race. A source said, “What’s the point of making Bumrah play any more IPL games?”
Bumrah is one of the most dangerous bowlers in the world, but things have not gone his way in the ongoing IPL 2026. In 13 matches, the star bowler has managed only four wickets.
It has been more than two years since Jasprit Bumrah last played an ODI for India. His last ODI match came in the 2023 ODI World Cup final against Australia, where India suffered a six-wicket defeat. After that, Bumrah continued playing Test and T20I cricket.
