Follow UsJasprit Bumrah picked up 14 wickets in three Tests that he played in England in including a couple of fifers, yet many have criticised the India fast bowler as he did not make himself available for all five Tests to manage his workload.
Navdeep Saini, who last played for India in 2021, believes Bumrah bowled well in England, but has urged him and other fast bowlers to play domestic cricket, which will help them perform better in international cricket.
"I feel that Jassi Bhai [Jasprit Bumrah], the way he has performed in the last series[Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy], he played three matches, he bowled so well in all three matches," Saini told ANI.
"I personally believe that all the fast bowlers should play domestic cricket so that when you go to the top level, you do not feel that these things are different because you have done so much hard work that things look normal."
Saini is currently playing in the Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2025, where he has picked up five wickets in six matches for the East Delhi Riders. His side has won five of the seven matches so far and are currently second on the points table.
