“Throughout my rehabilitation, I wasn’t exclusively preparing for T20 matches; my focus was always on being prepared for World Cup-level competition… so I’ve been bowling 10, 12, and even 15 overs. Having bowled more overs, it becomes easier to adjust to fewer overs in matches. I’m not holding back; I feel physically fit and eagerly anticipate the upcoming games,” Jasprit Bumrah concluded.
