Jasprit Bumrah to travel to the UK for stress fracture treatment

Jasprit Bumrah visited the UK in October, was treated for back fractures and withdrew from the test series against South Africa. A BCCI official confirmed the development for ESPNcricinfo but did not schedule his recovery.

But last week, former Indian physiotherapist Andrew Leipus usually takes about a month for these injuries to heal. "If it's a stress response, it can be OK after about 4-6 weeks with an active rehabilitation program. However, if you follow a larger spectrum of bone stress damage, it can take 3-6 months. Stress fractures are bilateral (same spine) Cracks on both sides), may take more than a year. "

Bumrah's condition was revealed during a regular inspection in September, and Indian team officials quickly pulled out the cotton fabric. He paid much attention to managing his workload, keeping in mind that he was one of the team's biggest weapons. The series for South Africa would have been his first at home after impressive performances in South Africa, England, Australia and the West Indies. He has five wit in each of the countries as India finished 2-0 consecutive victories earlier this month and played a hat trick in the Caribbean.
