TimesofIndia.com in Gqeberha: As modern cricket calendars become increasingly congested, with international series and T20 leagues coming thick and fast, the conversation around bowlers’ workload management has never been more relevant. Much of it, from an Indian cricket perspective, has focused on Jasprit Bumrah.
During the tour of Australia, Bumrah bowled 151.2 overs, which was 24.4% of all the balls bowled by India's bowlers in the five-match series. In the fifth Test, at the SCG, Bumrah was taken away with a back spasm and was unable to bowl upon returning.
