India will be without Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel in the upcoming Asia Cup 2022. The two seamers have been ruled out of the competition due to their respective injuries.
Both Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel are currently undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru. The two will be aiming to regain full fitness ahead of the all-important T20 World Cup, which is slated to begin in October later this year.
Bumrah took to Instagram on Wednesday, August 17, to share a picture with Patel.
He captioned the post:
"The writing on the wall says it all."
Bumrah is currently on the sidelines due to a back injury, while Harshal Patel is out due to a rib injury. The team management will want the two bowlers to return to action soon, as they form an important part of India's T20I set-up.
