Speaking on Friday (Nov 15), Mhambrey reckons Bumrah is unlikely to play in five Test matches of the BGT. India will start their BGT quest on November 22 in Perth against the Aussies as they also bid for a place in the final of the World Test Championship (WTC). Mhambrey comments on Bumrah's workload "Well, workload management, in general, is being taken care of not only for this series because we've been part of this from our term. I'm sure that's going to continue. If you look at England, Boom had to miss a Test match. The call is when you take that step. It's going to be important to look at the series, a 5 Test series. I'm not sure Boom will play all 5 Test matches," Mhambrey said while speaking on the workload management of the Indian pacer. Bumrah has struggled with injuries in the past, which saw him miss most of 2023 and the 2022 T20 World Cup. He recently missed the Mumbai Test match against New Zealand, highlighting the importance of workload management. He is also likely to be available for India in the captain's role, with Rohit Sharma set to miss the Perth Test match due to paternity leave.  The Indian team has been victorious in the last two visits to Australia and also won the Boxing Day Test in 2020. Rohit Sharma's men will look to repeat the heroics as they look to take a giant step towards the World Test Championship (WTC) final at Lord's.
