After missing out on the limited overs bilateral series against England this summer due to an injury, Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah is all set to return of for the five-match Test series against the Englishmen which is scheduled to begin on 1st August at Birmingham. The series will bring new challenges to the fast bowler who hasn’t played much cricket in English conditions and doesn’t carry a good amount of Test run at his back.

With just a little more than a week for the first game, Jasprit Bumrah, who has been looked as India’s best death bowler in limited overs cricket shared as to how he plans for the away tours. Bumrah exclaimed that before visiting any country he not only looks as to how players have performed in their home conditions but also looks at some videos which help him to get the glimpse of what all is expected out of him and how he can make his plans better.

Plan in advance before visiting a new country

Speaking to the mid-day Bumrah said, “Whenever I go to a new country, I always plan in advance. Before visiting the country, I have a look at a few videos. What works over there. What the home team does over there. It is very important for long tours to enjoy the country and see the places. So that’s the basic thing that I look to follow.”

“You look to enjoy the country, you look to see the place. That is how you get to know about the culture of the place and you eventually start enjoying the country. It then reflects on your performance as well,” he added.

Recalling his Test debut in South Africa

“I always wanted to play Test cricket. I was happy when I finally got to play it in South Africa. The start also went well. I always loved Test cricket and I rate it very highly. “I enjoy playing each and every format but for me, Test cricket is at the paramount level because I feel everything is tested at that level.”

He concluded while saying that he will get more confidence with every game he plays. He said, “Hopefully, whenever I play more, I’ll be able to do well and gain more confidence. So that will reflect on other formats as well. I don’t have any personal goals. I take it one day at a time.”
