What is your opinion about choosing and choosing ‘Games of Jasprit Bumrah’ as ​​part of workload management?

I think it’s great. I think it is really important today. We seem to play a lot of cricket. Look, Jasprit Bumrah Last year had a serious injury after the test competitions in Australia. It is clear that he bowling a lot for his country and tried to win every game for his country. But it just takes its toll on the body. And managing those loads is something very close to me and very important and for all fast bowlers. And I just think it’s a very good example for emerging fast bowlers. It is clear that he is doing very well in the park, but he learns how to manage his body so that he can play as long as he can.

You have sustained many injuries during your career. How did you stay motivated and did you keep coming back stronger every time?

Look, there is a natural will continuing to play. So I think injuries are frustrating and they put you out of the game. But if you are injured on the couch, you tend to watch the TV and you wish you played. So the motivation does not seem to disappear from that. I like quickly bowling. I would like to be part of cricket teams. Traveling world is a great privilege to play all over the world. So the motivation for me has always been there. And yes, of course these injuries are difficult, but at the same time it is part of the work.
