Following the tour of Australia, Jasprit Bumrah, India’s premier pacer, was probably recommended to stay in bed at home because to back swelling. A final decision regarding his availability for the forthcoming Champions Trophy will be made following his recuperation and medical evaluations, as this development has raised doubts about his availability.
Jasprit Bumrah was observed experiencing back pain during the Sydney Test match against Australia.
He left the pitch in agony and went for scans in the middle of the match. According to a TOI story, he was told to stay in bed after returning to India because of back swelling that needed close observation. According to sources, Bumrah will report to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru after the swelling goes down, however the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not yet confirmed the precise nature of his injury.
“There isn’t a set date yet, but Bumrah might visit the Centre of Excellence (CoE) next week. In order to aid in the recovery of his muscles and the reduction of the swelling, he has been recommended to relax at home. After that is finished, the next step will be determined. You don’t sound good in bed. I hope it’s not a dislocated disc or a higher-grade muscular oedema. A reliable source stated, “The strategy must be the same as his: wrap him in cotton wool and maintain the gift like him.

The length and severity of rehabilitation will be determined by the swelling in muscle tissue or disc involvement, according to former India strength and conditioning coach Ramji Srinivasan.
“Depending on the severity of the muscle tear, swelling may result from the production of oedema. According to Srinivasan, recovery from a disc bulge or swelling also depends on the patient’s grade, capacity, medical intervention, and post-medical rehabilitation therapy.
As for the Champions Trophy, the BCCI has not yet revealed the team, and it will begin in Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates on February 19. The decision to evaluate the fitness of Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav was apparently postponed by the selectors. Bumrah’s availability is still uncertain, despite the fact that head coach Gautam Gambhir, captain Rohit Sharma, and chief selector Ajit Agarkar just met in Mumbai to finalise the roster.
