Bumrah’s latest injury: Team India made the fans happy by winning the Champions Trophy 2025 title. This victory was also special for Indian fans because Team India won this tournament in the absence of legendary fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah could not be a part of this tournament due to injury. Now Indian fans are just waiting for Bumrah to recover and return as soon as possible. But before this, Team India has received a dangerous warning. Veteran fast bowler Shane Bond, who has been Jaspreet Bumrah’s coach in IPL, has said that this injury of Bumrah can end his career.
Injury was suffered in Australia
Bumrah suffered a back injury during the last Test match on the Australia tour. Due to this, he could not bowl in the second innings of that match played in Sydney. Since then Bumrah has been out of the team. Team India was expecting his return in the Champions Trophy but it did not happen. Now, from the news that is coming out, it seems that Bumrah will not be able to play even in the first few matches of IPL, which is a worrying news for Mumbai Indians as well as Team India.

Bond warned Team India
But Shane Bond has given even worse news. Bond, former bowling coach of Mumbai Indians in IPL, has given a big warning regarding Bumrah’s injury. Speaking to ESPN-Cricinfo, former New Zealand bowler Bond said if the injury persists in the same spot then it could turn dangerous. “If he gets injured again in the same area, it could be career-threatening because I don’t think you can undergo surgery again in the same area,” he added.
Bumrah has been troubled by back pain before as well
This is not the first time he has suffered a back injury. Two-three years ago also, Bumrah had suffered a stress fracture in his back, due to which he could not play in the 2022 T20 World Cup and was away from cricket for almost a year.
Now after this new injury, whether Bumrah will need surgery again or not, no information has come from the board or Bumrah regarding this. In such a situation, Team India will hope that Bumrah returns fit as soon as possible and then remains available for the Test series on the England tour in June as he may also have to captain Team India in this series.
