Team India fast bowler Prasidh Krishna provided a massive update on skipper Jasprit Bumrah’s injury scare after Day 2 of the fifth Border-Gavaskar series Test in Sydney. Prasidh Krishna said that Jasprit Bumrah had a back spasm and that the medical team is monitoring him for the must-win game in the series.
Bumrah left the dressing room and the stadium midway through the second session on Day 2. After bowling just one over post-lunch, the pace bowler did not return to the field.
