More troubling news has emerged regarding Bumrah's health, as he has developed a swelling on his back. This injury is expected to sideline him for the group stage matches of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Currently, Bumrah is set to visit the National Cricket Academy (NCA) for further assessment and treatment, which will determine the extent of his injury and recovery timeline.
Bumrah's absence is a considerable setback for the Indian team, particularly following his recent leadership role during the Perth and Sydney Tests of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. His experience and skill as a bowler are crucial for India's success, especially in high-stakes tournaments like the Champions Trophy, which is scheduled to commence on February 19 in Pakistan and the UAE. Without Bumrah, India may face challenges in maintaining their competitive edge during the initial stages of the tournament.
