Jasprit Bumrah has a 'stress reaction' and not a 'stress fracture'

MUMBAI: This should provide a glimmer of hope for Team India fans. Ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah is not suffering from a stress fracture of the back, as was being initially feared and reported by the media, but a "stress reaction," TOI has learnt through reliable sources in the BCCI.

This practically means that his injury isn't as bad as it seemed initially, and the recovery period will be much, much shorter, though it remains to be seen if India take a risk by taking the injured fast bowler to the T20 World Cup in Australia while hoping that he recovers for the knockout round at least.
