Indian batting legend Sunil Gavaskar has stated that fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah should have "no workload issues" during the upcoming Asia Cup in 2025.
This comes after months of discussions and observations from various sources concerning Bumrah's workload and whether he will be able to participate in the prestigious tournament, set to take place shortly.
"I don't think so," said Gavaskar to Hindustan Times when asked whether Bumrah might skip the Asia Cup in the interest of his workload management. "The selectors and the board will take care of his workload. He had a few months off. He didn't play the IPL and then he didn't go to England for the Hundred. So, he should be fresh."
This comes as a relief for Bumrah and Indian fans alike, as the fast bowler is considered a vital player in the national team's setup. Gavaskar's comments will surely boost expectations of seeing Bumrah at his best during the upcoming competition.
The ongoing India vs New Zealand Test series will be crucial for Bumrah to prove his form and fitness ahead of the Asia Cup. Given his prior record and the significance of the coming tournament, all eyes will be on his performances at home.
