Team India bowling coach remembers Jasprit Bumrah 

After the Indian cricket team's dominating win against West Indies in the first Test in Dominica, bowling coach Paras Mhambrey said that the bowling attack misses Jasprit Bumrah. Mhambrey said: 

Injuries and workload of bowlers is a big concern. If you look at the last one-and-a-half years, Bumrah is a player who we have missed a lot. We have not decided who is going to play white ball and who red ball but eventually we have to give breaks to our bowlers. 

If Jasprit Bumrah is fit to play in the 2023 ODI World Cup, the Indian cricket team will have one of the most lethal bowling attacks in the tournament. However, in his absence, pacers like Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, and Shardul Thakur have done well in all three formats of the game.
