'Tell Jasprit Bumrah to play all 5 Tests': Sunil Gavaskar requests pacer's wife Sanjana Ganesan, gets a cheeky reply
Jasprit Bumrah (Getty Images) NEW DELHI: India's pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah continued his red-hot form by picking up his 14th five-wicket haul during the first Test against England at Headingley, Leeds, on Sunday — a feat made more impressive by the fact that four catches were dropped off his bowling. His brilliance helped India edge ahead with a slender six-run lead as England were bowled out for 465 in the second session. However, despite his heroics, Bumrah will not feature in all five Tests of the series. BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar confirmed that Bumrah's workload will be managed across the series to preserve his fitness. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Bumrah has been in sensational form in 2024, claiming 78 wickets at an astonishing average of 15.07, with six five-wicket hauls. In stark contrast, all other Indian pacers combined have taken 80 wickets at 33.48 with just one five-for in the same period. Such has been Bumrah's impact that cricketing greats Sunil Gavaskar and Cheteshwar Pujara even made a lighthearted request to his wife, sports broadcaster Sanjana Ganesan, asking her to convince him to play the full series. With this latest effort, Bumrah has equaled Kapil Dev's record of 12 five-wicket hauls in away Tests — but achieved it in just 34 matches compared to Kapil's 66. His overseas dominance includes five four-wicket hauls in Australia, three each in England and South Africa, and two in the West Indies. Remarkably, only two of Bumrah's 14 five-wicket hauls have come on Indian soil. Greenstone Lobo predicts winner of IND vs ENG series | Who Has the Astrological Edge? He also became the first Indian bowler to take 10 five-wicket hauls in SENA countries (South Africa, England, New Zealand, Australia). He is now just two behind Pakistan legend Wasim Akram, who leads with 11 such hauls in those nations. Overall, Bumrah has 210 wickets in 46 Tests at an outstanding average of 19.33 and an economy rate of 2.77. His best Test bowling figures remain 6 for 27. While India have five other pacers in the squad, Bumrah's recent performances underline just how irreplaceable he is — even as the team looks to balance workload with long-term sustainability.

WATCH: Sanjana Ganesan conveys Sunil Gavaskar, Pujara's request to Jasprit Bumrah, she wants...
WATCH: Sanjana Ganesan conveys Sunil Gavaskar, Pujara's request to Jasprit Bumrah, she wants... New Delhi: An interview of Jasprit Bumrah, who bowled brilliantly in the Leeds Test, is going viral on social media. This interview was also special because it was taken by none other than his wife and sports anchor Sanjana Ganesan. In this interview after the fourth day's play, Sanjana asked Bumrah many questions, but the most interesting moment came when she told Bumrah a special message from Sunil Gavaskar and Cheteshwar Pujara. Message from Gavaskar and Pujara, Bumrah's silent reply During the conversation, Sanjana said, 'A request has come from above from Pujara and Sunil Gavaskar that please please please you play all five Tests.' Hearing this question, Bumrah smiled, but did not give any answer. He just said, 'We will talk about this later. Thank you.' After this, Bumrah left the field without saying anything. Jasprit Bumrah keeping the batters and us guessing 😫#SonySportsNetwork #GroundTumharaJeetHamari #ENGvIND #NayaIndia #DhaakadIndia #TeamIndia | @Jaspritbumrah93 @SanjanaGanesan — Sony Sports Network (@SonySportsNetwk) June 23, 2025 Bumrah will play only three Tests A five-Test series is going on between India and England, but according to reports, Jasprit Bumrah will play only three Tests. The management has made this strategy to keep him fit throughout the season. Bumrah had earlier played five consecutive Tests during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, and got injured in the last match, due to which he had to be out of the Champions Trophy. In such a situation, now it has been decided to play him in limited Tests. However, by taking five wickets in the first innings of the Leeds Test, he has definitely raised the question that how will the Indian bowling attack perform if he does not play in the remaining two Tests.
