Jasprit Bumrah has shook off any injury concerns and bowled full force in the nets ahead of the Brisbane Test on Thursday, December 12, which is a huge comfort for the Indian cricket team and its supporters. As he led from the front with the ball in Perth to lead his team to a significant victory, Bumrah has been in incredible form for India in the ongoing series. Even though the visitors lost the Adelaide Test, the pacer still claimed four more wickets.
Bumrah returns to nets
However, when Bumrah would go down on the pitch and the physios would have to consult him, the Indian supporters experienced a moment of fear during the pink-ball Test. Many, like former Australia pacer Damien Fleming, sensed that the problem was serious, even though it was thought to be a case of cramps. The pacer did not bowl in the nets on Tuesday, December 10 during India's practice session in Adelaide.

The Indian pacer has returned to the nets and is currently bowling at his peak level. The Indian pacer began the practice with a couple of leg-break deliveries with R Ashwin before reverting to his typical pace, according to Australian journalist Bharat Sundaresan.
Bumrah would bowl at players like KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal while going all out in the nets. During the nets practice, Bumrah was being a handful to both Indian batsmen, according to Sundaresan.
