| Important to give Jasprit Bumrah enough time after comeback from injury: Hardik Pandya | | |  agencies
NEW DELHI, Sept 21: Jasprit Bumrah was a surprise omission from India's playing XI for the first T20I against Australia but since he is coming back from an injury, Hardik Pandya said the team will not put too much pressure on the premier fast bowler. Bumrah, who did not play the Asia Cup 2022 due to a back injury, has been named in the T20 World Cup squad and the preceding series against Australia and South Africa.
He was missed badly in the series opener against Australia on Tuesday as the visitors chased down 209 rather comfortably. Barring Axar Patel, all bowlers leaked more than 11 runs per over.
"We all know what he brings to the table and how important he is for us. There will be concerns here and there (about bowling) which is fine. We got to trust our boys. These are the best 15 in the country and that is why they are there in the squad.
"Jasprit not being there obviously makes a big difference. He is coming back after an injury, it is important for him to get enough time to kind of come back and may be not put a lot of pressure on himself," said Hardik.
The star all-rounder smashed 71 not out off 30 balls to take India past 200. He has been the team's stand-out player ever since his comeback post the IPL 2022.
Talking about his performances of late, he said: "I have gotten a lot of success recently but for me, what is more important is that even on my good days how can I get better? The kind of career graph I have had, I don't make a big deal about my performances whether success or failure. |
