Jasprit Bumrah News

Indian cricket team last played a T20I series in February 2025 and players then represented their respective IPL franchises. They are now set to return to T20Is at the upcoming Asia Cup 2025, which will be played from September 9 in the UAE. With no T20I series scheduled before Asia Cup 2025, the performance of players during the IPL 2025 performances will play a key role in team selection. Let's take a look at Mumbai Indians players who could be picked in the India's squad for the Asia Cup 2025:

India's dominance in SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia) countries has been backed by some remarkable bowling performances. Here are the top Indian wicket-takers in Test match victories in these challenging overseas conditions.   

Jasprit Bumrah is undoubtedly one of India's most crucial bowlers. However, a surprising trend has emerged in India's Test match 

In Jasprit Bumrah's absence, Siraj led from the front and finished with four wickets (4/86), including massive wickets of Joe Root and Harry Brook, who played a key role in dismissing England for 247 in their first innings on Friday.  

The 2025 Asia Cup will be held in the UAE from September 9 to 28. Despite facing criticism for missing two Tests particularly with India trailing 1-2 in the series Bumrah adhered to the pre series plan. Bumrah was officially released from India’s squad for the fifth and final Test against England.

India currently leads the ICC rankings across multiple formats, powered by standout individual performances and their undefeated run in the 2025 Champions Trophy.   

Ben Stokes currently leads the wicket-takers chart in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 2025 with 17 wickets after 4 Tests, followed closely by Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. With Bumrah likely to be rested for the 5th Test, all eyes will be on Siraj as he looks to step up and finish the series as the highest wicket-taker.   

During the ongoing tour of England, Jasprit Bumrah played in the first Test at Headingley, missed the second match at Edgbaston, and played in the third and fourth match at Lord's and Old Trafford respectively.  

Shubman Gill-led India will face Ben Stokes' England in the fifth and last Test of the five-match series for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy from July 31 at The Oval, London. Once again, the focus will be on the workload management of Jasprit Bumrah which will influence India's lineup. Kuldeep Yadav is also likely to finally get a chance to play in the series. With an aim to secure a win at Oval and draw the series, India are likely to make key changes to their playing XI in the fifth Test. Here's India's predicted Playing XI for the 5th Test against England:

Kuldeep Yadav is likely to return for the fifth Test at The Oval, with the pitch expected to assist spinners. His wrist-spin could play a crucial role in the middle overs, especially in the absence of Ashwin and an unfit Bumrah.

India salvaged a dramatic draw in the fourth Test, thanks to centuries from Gill, Jadeja, and Sundar. With the series at 2-1, Bumrah’s availability for the Oval decider remains uncertain, while Pant is ruled out with a broken foot.

Jasprit Bumrah's remarkable streak in test cricket ended in the 4th test at Manchester after England posted a big total of 669 runs in first innings. 

Jasprit Bumrah’s achievement of 50 Test wickets in England highlights his stature as one of the premier fast bowlers in world cricket, even as India battles to stay alive in the Test at Old Trafford.

Jasprit Bumrah has firmly established himself as the greatest Indian pacer of this era, showcasing unmatched skill and consistency across the globe. The Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series has been a captivating battle, with England currently holding a 2-1 lead after a thrilling 22-run victory in the third Test at Lord's. Ryan ten Doeschate, while discussing Bumrah's availability, seemed to accidentally confirm the inevitable.

Former England cricketer David Lloyd questioned Jasprit Bumrah’s impact, highlighting that India have lost more Tests with him in the XI. Despite being India’s top pacer, Bumrah’s workload is being closely managed ahead of the fourth Test at Old Trafford.

As the high-stakes five-match Test series between India and England heads into its fourth chapter, the Indian team is expected to make strategic changes to bounce back and keep the series alive.
