Jasprit Bumrah, the star Indian fast bowler, has been released from the national Test squad for upcoming matches. This decision comes ahead of the third Test against South Africa in Ranchi. The Indian team management has decided to provide Bumrah with some rest considering his recent workload. Bumrah’s absence will be felt in the Test series as he has been in phenomenal form with the ball. Meanwhile, it has also been confirmed that Indian batsman KL Rahul will not be part of the playing XI for the Ranchi match. Rahul, who has been struggling with inconsistency, was given multiple chances to perform but failed to make a significant impact. The team management has decided to try out new options to strengthen the batting line-up. The third Test between India and South Africa will commence on the 19th of October, with the Indian team looking to wrap up the series after winning the first two matches convincingly.
