Jasprit Bumrah tipped to join Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma after IND vs ENG Tests; 'Passion is there, but he has lost his…'

Jasprit Bumrah might be the world's best bowler in the longest format of the game but his struggles with workload in the ongoing Test series against England could possibly force him to rethink about his career in whites, felt former cricketer Mohammed Kaif. 

Bumrah, who took five-wicket hauls in the first and third Tests against England - both in a losing cause - looked a pale shadow in the ongoing fourth Test in Manchester. He just took the lone wicket of Jamie Smith as England are on course for a huge first innings lead against India. 

In a video posted on social media, Kaif claimed that the Indian team might need to prepare themselves without Bumrah at least in Tests going forward. In fact, prior to the start of the series, India head coach Gautam Gambhir confirmed that he Bumrah will play three games. 

"I don't think you will see Jasprit Bumrah in the upcoming Tests, and he might retire. He is struggling, and there is a noticeable drop in pace. He is an honest person. If he feels he is not giving his 100 per cent for the country, win matches for his country or take wickets, it is my gut feeling that he will himself refuse," Kaif said.
