India’s strong playing11 for T20 World Cup 2022, Jasprit Bumarh not included: Team India recently faced an exit from the Asia Cup 2022 following their poor bowling performance in the death overs. The two key bowlers – Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel – were dearly missed by the Indians as they were ruled out of the series due to their respective injuries. But, since then both of them recovered and played a few matches in Indian colours.
While Harshal Patel continues to provide his services to the Indian side, Jasprit Bumrah’s availability for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 is under thick clouds as a couple of reports have claimed that he has sustained a stress fracture and won’t take part in the World Cup.
Meanwhile, BCCI hasn’t updated anything on the injury and the decision is yet to be taken. Although Jasprit Bumrah is not officially ruled out of the T20 World Cup 2022, his chances of playing are small.
We, in this article, will pick India’s strong playing11 for the T20 World Cup 2022 without the services of Jasprit Bumrah.
