Indian fast bowler Bumrah leaves Test side for ‘personal reasons’
and desperate to make sure they get runs. "When we travel to other countries, such as Australia, hopefully if they get themselves in they'll get greedy and go big. This experience will just harden them towards that.
"Equally, the next time they experience a situation like this, it won't be as much of a shock to them. As tough as it is and as painful as it is at this moment, hopefully we can take some good lessons."
Silverwood backed India captain Virat Kohli's assertion that the batting on both sides had suffered. He said the coaching staff were coming up for 'counter-actions' for the next time they have to face spin duo Axar Patel, who took 11 wickets in the match, and R Ashwin, whose seven wickets took him past 400 in Tests.
Ahmedabad, India - India said on Saturday that star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has left the squad for the England Test series for 'personal reasons'.
The surprise move came only two days after India, with Bumrah in the side, thrashed England in the third Test inside two days to take a 2-1 series lead. The final match starts on Thursday.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India said Bumrah had asked 'to be released from India’s squad ahead of the fourth Test owing to personal reasons'.
"Accordingly,
the
fast bowler has been released and he will not be available for selection for the fourth Test."
The BCCI said no replacement would be called up.
Bumrah, who has become India's pace spearhead in recent years, bowled only six overs in England's first innings this week and none in the second innings when only spin bowlers were used.
Umesh Yadav and Mohammed Siraj are the other two pacers India can call upon in Bumrah's absence. Yadav was added to the squad ahead of the third Test after recovering from a calf injury he sustained on the tour of Australia. If the team management chooses to play an extra spinner or an allrounder, then Kuldeep Yadav or Hardik Pandya could come into the fray.
