Umran Malik Trends On Twitter As Reports of Jasprit Bumrah Being Ruled Out Of T20 World Cup Emerge Online, See Tweets
New Delhi: Ahead of the T20 World Cup starting in Australia next month, India have been dealt with a huge blow with pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah to be ruled out of the showpiece event due to back stress fracture. Earlier, before the first T20I between India and South Africa at Thiruvananthapuram, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had said that Bumrah was ruled out of Wednesday’s match after complaining of back pain during practice session on Tuesday.
However, BCCI has not confirmed anything in particular about Bumrah’s ouster yet. As soon as the reports emerged online, IPL sensation Umran Malik started trending on Twitter.

I feel Mohammed Shami would replace Jasprit Bumrah in the World Cup squad and Umran Malik can come in as a standby! Your thoughts?

Mohsin Khan or Umran Malik is a more exciting option than Shami/Siraj for replacing Bumrah in the T20I WC squad. 🏏

Bumrah, who has a slinging action, puts a lot of pressure on his back during loading. Former West Indies pace bowling great Michael Holding had assessed that Bumrah was always a candidate for back injuries.
