Ashwin and de Villiers on Bumrah's workload management
Former India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has recommended that fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah concentrate more on white-ball cricket and selectively participate in Test matches. Ashwin suggests Bumrah should play only the most important Tests and limit his appearances to manage his workload better.
AB de Villiers, the legendary South African batsman, echoed similar sentiments regarding Bumrah’s fitness and career longevity. Both cricket experts emphasize the need to balance Bumrah’s commitments across formats to prolong his effectiveness and reduce injury risks.
Strategic workload balance
The message from Ashwin and de Villiers is clear: given the demanding nature of international cricket, especially for fast bowlers, focusing efforts where impact is highest can be beneficial. Bumrah’s role in T20 and ODI cricket could remain as a priority, while his Test match appearances might be limited to crucial encounters.
