Indian national cricket team fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has been the talk of the town in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The premier fast bowler has been widely applauded for his heroics with the ball throughout the five-match Test series against the Australian national cricket team.
Jasprit Bumrah, who is captaining the Indian national cricket team in the ongoing Sydney Test, has gone under the radar on the second day of the match. While his injury has been the hot topic, the first pacer has also been accused of using sandpaper in the match.
In a video that has gone viral on the internet, Bumrah can be seen getting the shoes right. But what caught the attention of many was something similar to sandpaper that fell from his shoes. The fast bowler, however, took it in his hand and tied his shoes again.
Here is the video:

Bumrah’s accusation of using sandpaper could be a massive thing in the context of the series. With the video going viral on the internet, it is expected to be noticed by the match umpires, and there are chances that the fast bowler will be questioned.
Bumrah has been the best fast bowler in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The opening fast bowler is the leading wicket-taker in the ongoing five-match Test series and is one of the main reasons why the Indian national cricket team is fighting hard in the series and has a chance to tie the game.
Bumrah has taken 32 wickets in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. This is the most by any player in the Indian national cricket team in the series below. Also, he captained the team in Perth and is leading the team in the ongoing match while doing a decent job.
But there are clouds hanging over Bumrah’s fitness in the ongoing game. The fast bowler felt discomfort while bowling on the second day of the ongoing Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground. It all started during the first session when the pace left the field for 30 minutes.
Bumrah though came back to bowl in the second innings but bowled just one. He slowed while bowling in the mid-120s. The fast bowler then left the field and did not return to the ground as he was seen going for scans in the car.
It was later revealed that Jasprit Bumrah had experienced back spasms and underwent precautionary scans. There were reports stating that he might come to bat and his availability to bowl will depend on how he feels tomorrow morning.
