Jasprit Bumrah, who will be leading the Indian attack in the upcoming Test series in England, is already warming up to the challenge.

India play five Tests against England, with the first game beginning on June 20 at Leeds.

Bumrah believes that England's aggressive style of play - popularly called Bazball - opens up more opportunities for the bowlers.

"They're playing an interesting style of cricket, which is an interesting one because I don't really understand it too much," Bumrah told former Australian skipper Michael Clarke on the 'Beyond 23' podcast.

"But as a bowling unit, you know, we always feel confident that when the batters are being ultra aggressive, on a given day, anybody could run through and, you know, get wickets," the speedster observed.

But Bumrah, anyway, likes bowling in England. "Playing in England is always a different challenge. I always love bowling with the Dukes ball. But I don't know how much the Dukes ball is doing right now.

"But the weather, the swinging condition sometimes... then when the ball becomes soft, you know, there's always a challenge. So I always look forward to playing in England."

Bumrah, however, doesn't believe in the need to sledge to be aggressive.

"I do have my competitive spirit and I do play to win, but I don't want to cross the line. You want to give your best, but you don't have to be a clown. That is something I try and not to be. I am only looking at bowling fast."

Workload factor

On a different note, the 31-year-old admitted that playing all three formats of the game is a tough challenge and he will have to be "selective" at some point in his career.

"Obviously, it is tough for any individual to keep playing everything for so long. I've been doing it for a while, but then eventually you have to understand where your body's going, what is the important tournament."

Having played more than 200 Internationals across formats, Bumrah understands the need to be smart. "You have to be a little selective and you have to be a little smart about how you use your body."

The prospect of representing India at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics also excites Bumrah.Having played more than 200 Internationals across formats, Bumrah understands the need to be smart. "You have to be a little selective and you have to be a little smart about how you use your body."
