BCCI Medical Team Delivers Grim News To Jasprit Bumrah, Pacer Won't Play 5th Test: Report
India's bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah will miss the fifth India vs England Test, according to a report in ESPNCricinfo. Before the series, the BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar had declared that Bumrah would play only three of the five Tests in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy due to workload management. Bumrah has already played three of the four Tests so far in the series. However, with the fifth match being a series-deciding one, there was a school of thought regarding including Bumrah for the game at The Oval in London. However, the report said: "BCCI medical team has told Bumrah that the decision is in line with safeguarding his back and keeping the long-term in mind." Akash Deep, who missed the fourth Test with a groin injury, will most likely replace Jasprit Bumrah, the report added. In the second Test at Edgbaston, Akash Deep picked up a ten-wicket match haul. Earlier, however, India batting coach Sitanshu Kotak did not rule out Jasprit Bumrah 's participation in the series deciding fifth Test against England, saying "he is fit as per his load." Injury-prone pace spearhead Bumrah was earmarked for three Tests on the tour as part of his workload management but with the series on the line, he could play a fourth one. After a dramatic draw at Manchester, head coach Gautam Gambhir also did not rule out the possibility of Bumrah featuring in the crunch game. Kotak reiterated that on Tuesday. "Bumrah is fit now according to his load. He has bowled one inning in the last match. So that obviously head coach, our physio and captain they will have a discussion and decide. There has been no discussion," Kotak said two days before the game. At Old Trafford, Gambhir had also confirmed that all his pacers were fit, meaning that Arshdeep Singh and Akash Deep have recovered from injuries. Asked about the workload of Mohammed Siraj, who is the only Indian pacer to play all games, Kotak gave a detailed answer. "So, I don't know what you guys think about the actual workload. So, if I tell you quickly, before the Test series, if a bowler puts in a certain amount of overs per week, that if he's preparing for T20 and putting in 20 overs, 25 overs, 6 overs every day, or putting in 6 overs for five days, that is good enough workload for T20. "They have a GPS. It shows the record of how many overs the bowler has put in throughout the week. And they're in constant touch with the bowling coach. So, the build-up of the last 4-5 weeks, you need to determine if that there's no spike in it. "So, what's the spike? If a bowler is putting in 30 overs per week, and suddenly, in the first innings, he's put in 35 overs, then that's the spike in his load. So, the number of overs that Siraj is putting in every week, it's not necessary that it's due to practice. "That load is due to the match as well. So, then, another thing depends on whether Siraj himself, or the physios, or his body feels that, no, I'm tired. Then, they will think about the load. Otherwise, his bowling load is very high, is very good. So, there's no chance of a spike in it," added Kotak.

Same curator, two rules? Gambhir denied pitch access, McCullum stood on it
Preparations for the series-deciding fifth Test between India and England took an unexpected turn on Tuesday after a confrontation between India head coach Gautam Gambhir and Oval chief curator Lee Fortis during the visitors' training session sparked a wider debate over double standards in pitch altercation, which occurred two days before the crucial Test, stemmed from Fortis allegedly instructing members of India's support staff to maintain a distance of 2.5 meters from the pitch during their inspection. Gambhir, known for his forthright approach, took exception to the described the scene as visibly tense, with Gambhir reportedly telling Fortis: "You don't tell any of us what we need to do. You have no right to tell us. You are just a groundsman-nothing beyond." Fortis, who has overseen pitches at The Oval for several years and has been awarded by the ECB for his work, responded, "I will have to report this." The verbal exchange was witnessed by ten Indian players present on the field, excluding captain Shubman Gill. The team was preparing under normal conditions, with most of the support staff wearing joggers rather than spikes-typically a non-issue during such pre-match batting coach Sitanshu Kotak, who intervened to defuse the situation, later provided context:"When we went to have a look at the wicket, someone came up and told us to stand 2.5 metres away. That was surprising, to say the least. We weren't wearing spikes. There are still two days to go before the match. I've never seen anything like it in my life."Kotak added that while it is fair for a curator to be protective of the pitch, "not to this extent." He also revealed that some Indian players had privately warned him that Fortis "isn't the easiest person to work with."Hours after the Gambhir-Fortis altercation, an old photo of the same pitch curator standing on the pitch with England head coach Brendon McCullum went viral on social media."Brendon McCullum takes his first inspection at the pitch 48hrs out with The Oval's head groundsman Lee Fortis,"-reads the caption of a viral image from the 2023 Ashes, showing the two standing on the pitch under virtually identical pre-match conditions. Former India opener and prominent commentator Aakash Chopra reignited the conversation by sharing the photo on social media, accusing the Oval's pitch curator of hypocrisy and raising questions about double standards."Why are you looking at this pitch, brother? You stay 25 metres away. This is what the groundsman said to Gambhir. And yet, here's the same curator on the pitch with McCullum two days before the Ashes Test. What's going on? Different rules for different people?" Chopra posted on X (formerly Twitter).NO OFFICIAL COMPLAINTDespite the heated nature of the exchange, Kotak confirmed that India would not be lodging a formal complaint. Still, the situation has drawn attention to a broader concern frequently voiced by visiting teams in England-the perceived imbalance in how access and authority are enforced in the lead-up to England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has yet to issue a public statement on the incident. The Oval, meanwhile, has prided itself on producing top-quality pitches under Fortis' stewardship, having won the ECB's award for best multi-day surfaces in each of the last three the perception of inconsistency, especially when dealing with high-profile visiting teams, may now cast a shadow over that reputation. As Kotak put it: "It's okay to be possessive about your pitch. But there has to be a line."- EndsYou May Also Like

England are currently leading the five-match Test series 2-1 but India have a chance to draw level by winning the final Test at The Oval in London.
