This is concerning if true. Speed drop of 5-7 kmph is significant for a pace bowler of his caliber.
Bumrah unfit? LOL next you’ll tell me Virat can’t chase targets. The man has been bowling non-stop for months, maybe he just needs proper rest instead of playing every single match format. Management need to rotate bowlers better imho
“Significant drop in precision” – mate, did we watch the same match? He still took 3 wickets with surgical precision even at lower speeds lmao. Maybe his speedometer was broken? Or maybe yours is? Next time bring your own radar gun to the stadium before writing these hot takes 😂
So our premier fast bowler is basically bowling at medium pace now and we’re supposed to win test series? This is disaster waiting to happen. The selectors should have rested him earlier but no they had to play him in every meaningless bilateral series. Now look at the mess we’re in with most important matches coming up.
I noticed the same thing watching the match! His usual 145+ kmph deliveries were barely touching 138-140. Something is definately off with his fitness or maybe he’s carrying an injury that BCCI isnt disclosing to media. But still he’s class apart from other bowlers in team.
Bumrah has been phenomenal throughout his career and one bad match doesn’t define him! Every athlete has ups and downs, and I’m confident he’ll bounce back stronger in the next test. His dedication and work ethic is unmatched in the current squad. Lets support our players instead of criticising them after every small setback!
Oh great, another expert diagnosing injuries from their couch. Maybe he’s just having an off day? Or perhaps the pitch conditions affected his rythm? But no, lets all jump to conclusions about fitness based on one test match performance.
Ah yes, the classic Indian team management strategy – run your best bowlers into the ground until they break, then act surprised when injuries happen. Genius level planning right there! Who needs sports science when you have blind optimism?
The biomechanics of fast bowling puts tremendous stress on lower back and ankles. If Bumrah’s speed has dropped consistently across multiple spells, it could indicate either fatigue or compensatory mechanisms due to discomfort in his action. Indian team physios should conduct thorough assesment before next match to prevent long-term damage to his career.
