Bowling coach Morkel impressed by Bumrah’s fitness and form

Date 12: Team India’s bowling coach Morne Morkel has been very impressed with Jasprit Bumrah’s fitness and form since his arrival in England. The Indian team has held three training sessions since his arrival in England. Keeping in mind Bumrah’s fitness and workload, the BCCI has announced the decision to play him in only three matches in the five-Test series against England. Morkel said, Bumrah is preparing himself well. I am very impressed with his energy in the last three days. It is good to see that Bumrah is fully prepared and is bowling strongly in the nets. He is in a very good condition at the moment. On the question of who will get a chance in the fourth bowler XI between Nitish Kumar Reddy and Shardul Thakur, bowling coach Morkel said, “We have high hopes from Reddy. We want to develop him into a complete all-rounder. He has the ability and can bowl the magic ball.” “We are giving him the task of bowling more overs. Nitish Reddy knows that this is going to be a tough tour. He is taking the responsibility. We are happy with that as coaches,” Morkel said.
