“ We must think of Jasprit Bumrah for the next 2-3 years, not the next series ”: old Team India Physio | Cricket news

Mumbai: At a time when there was a unleashed debate among the former cricket players and journalists around the workload of the AS-Alpier of India, Jasprit Bumrah, after its appearance in only three tests out of five in the series recently organized in England to manage its workload, the former physio team, John Gloster, offered an interesting perspective. Answering a question about the question of whether Bumrah should receive a room for maneuver in the choice of games he would play in a series / tournament, Glosters said: “Listen, I know that it is a very controversial subject at the moment, and I will gladly attack the most controversial subjects. I think the athlete at the end of the day only knows anyone. ” Speaking during a book launch at the Cricket Club of India on Monday, Gloster said: “Most of the athletes these days who have good sports teams around them take advice from these people. But intuitively, most athletes know what is good and what is wrong. And it’s a mature athlete. He is an intelligent individual who knows exactly what he does. Bumrah, 31, took 14 counters in three tests at 26:00 in the Tentulkar-Anderson trophy, and was criticized for missing the third and fifth crucial tests of the series due to the management of the workload. Overall, Bumrah took 219 counters in 48 tests at 19.82, with 15 lines with five titles, and should appear in the Asian Cup, which, according to Gloster, “should not be a problem, because the tournament will be played in a T20 format and that Bumrah was only four in a match.” Make a relevant point on the need to manage Bumrah’s workload to make sure it lasts for more years rather than focus on how he could play more and more games in a series, which could endanger him with burnout or injury, Gloster said: “And I think that nine times out of ten, mature athletes who have good support are to take the series. And what we need to think is not Bumrah for the Next series. We have to think of Bumrah for the next two to three years. »»

“In the case of Jasprit, he had a significant success when he returned. With the type of injury he had, or A, he always knew that there were going to be times when it should be managed differently for him to continue to succeed and stay at the highest level. And it is by good advice that it happens to that. ” Gloster stressed that he was crucial in the case of Bumrah that he had received the right advice in terms of workload and injury management, which meant that often there could be “other making decisions for him”, so that he has a long and successful career in international cricket. “He knows that his career and the duration of his career, his sporting longevity, will go through solid advice and wise advice. This is what it will be. And he knows that there will be situations where others will have decisions for him so that he has the best career he will have,” said Gloster.
