Shami Highlights Need for Indian Bowlers to Support Bumrah

Following the first Test against England, Mohammed Shami voiced his concerns about the Indian bowling performance. He specifically criticized the team’s bowling attack, noting that apart from Jasprit Bumrah, other bowlers struggled to contain England’s batsmen. Shami pointed out the need for the other bowlers to discuss and learn from Bumrah’s techniques and strategies. He emphasized the significance of the new ball in claiming early wickets. According to Shami, the wickets taken by Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna in the second innings had little impact because England was already in a strong position. He believes that the team needs to address its bowling issues and strengthen the bowling unit to avoid conceding easy runs.
