India’s star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is unlikely to play in the five-match ODI series against New Zealand, as per Times of India. The decision comes as part of a strategy by the Indian cricket team management, who want him to focus on the red-ball leg of the tour.
Despite being fully fit, Bumrah is expected to increase his workload by playing in a third India A fixture before joining the side for the series opener in Wellington.
