As the cricketing spotlight shifts to the JSCA Stadium here for the fourth India v England Test, starting from Friday (February 23), fans are gripped by a prevailing sense of uncertainty: Who will fill the void left by Jasprit Bumrah?
The star fast bowler, having shouldered the heavy load in Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam and Rajkot, has been granted a break by the BCCI. In his absence, his new ball partner Mohammed Siraj will spearhead the pace attack and one among Mukesh Kumar or Akash Deep is expected to accompany him on a black-soil pitch which, according to England vice-captain Ollie Pope, is tailor-made for spinners.
