Younis Declares Bumrah as Greatest Bowler, Praises Management
Imagine a super talented cricket bowler named Jasprit Bumrah.
A famous player named Waqar Younis thinks Bumrah is the best bowler ever, even better than legends.
Because Bumrah had a back injury, he only played in a few games to keep him healthy for future matches.
The cricket board, BCCI, is also considering changing how they pick players to make sure everyone is always fit to play.
Waqar Younis called Jasprit Bumrah the greatest bowler ever, comparing him to a right-handed Wasim Akram.
Bumrah played in three of the five Tests against England due to workload management.
BCCI prioritized Bumrah's workload due to a stress fracture in his back.
Bumrah has been India's primary bowler for several years.
Reports suggest BCCI may change player selection criteria, focusing on fitness.
