Australia National Crush Tim Bowling Glenn McGrath shared his views on the Indian national crisp team of the modern legend of bowling Jasprit Bumrah in the midst of his troubles in injury.
Glenn McGrath stated that Jasprit Bumrah was inferior to him, because during his playing days he had a ‘larger fuel tank’ than Indian Pacers.
Jasprit Bumrah for a long time from action
Bumrah is considered to be the best bowler in the world and has the ability to change the game unanimously for the benefit of her team. Also, several star strokes openly expressed the fear of facing Bumrah in matches.
Because it is the best in the world, it comes with costs because sometimes its team depends too much and is forced to exaggerate, which increases the chances of injury with the disturbance of the work load.
This is exactly what happened during the Border-Gavaskar trophy 2024-25, as Prime Minister Pacer had to carry his team on his back and in that process he sustained an injury during the last test, he was unable to bowle in the last matches of the match.
Jasprit Bumrah’s back injury proved to be more difficult than it was expected at first, as the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 has already missed and will probably miss the first few matches of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.
Supposedly, Jasprit Bumrah will be incorporated in April only for the Mumbaj Indians (Mi), and the exact date of his return to the competitive cricket has not yet been decided.
Puts more stress on your body than other bowlers – Glenn McGrath
Speaking of an Indian pace, Glenn McGrath said Jasprit Bumrah puts more stress on his body than any other pacer, which causes him to pick up injury.
He added that although Bumrah somehow finds a way to manage stress, he must be smarter because aging.
“He puts more stress on the body than other bowlers. He found ways to manage it, but unfortunately not all the time. Did it before (return from injury) and will know better than anyone (o) recovery time, time in the gym. It’s not as young as it used to be, so he has to be smarter in what he does, “said McGrath the Times of India.
Must work even more from the field – Glenn McGrath
Aussie legend advised Bumrah to get into extra hard work from the field and manage her work load, as Team India should fully fit whenever it is under pressure.
McGrath also stated that he had a larger fuel tank than Bumrah because he was not as quickly as an Indian pacer.
“He has to work even more from the field. Being a fast bowlers is like a car drive. If you don’t make up for it fuel, sooner or later it will run out of fuel. My fuel tank was bigger than Jasprit’s because I’m not a bowl as fast as he knows how they work at the best. If India is under a pump, they need it,” he added.
