Ghavri Suggests Bumrah Take Year-Long Break for Full Fitness
Jasprit Bumrah is a very famous fast bowler who plays cricket for India.
He throws the ball very fast, which is very hard on his body.
Bumrah is hurt again, so he cannot play in India's next big matches against Sri Lanka.
A former player named Karsan Ghavri gave some advice.
He said Bumrah should stop playing cricket for a long time.
Maybe five or six months, or even a whole year.
That way, his body can get completely better.
Ghavri thinks Bumrah sometimes plays when he is not fully healthy.
Then he gets hurt in the middle of a tournament.
Ghavri says Bumrah should only play when he is 100 percent ready.
Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of India's upcoming red-ball series against Sri Lanka.
Former Indian seamer Karsan Ghavri advised Bumrah to take a break of five to six months or even a year.
Ghavri said Bumrah should get back to 100 per cent fitness before returning to the side.
Ghavri said Bumrah often enters tournaments half-fit and then breaks down halfway through due to workload management.
Ghavri said Bumrah should only be included in the team if he can manage his workload throughout a tournament.
