Jasprit Bumrah Training: Jasprit Bumrah has taken the first visible step towards his return to international cricket after a difficult IPL campaign, with the India fast bowler sharing images of himself training on social media.

The last time Jasprit Bumrah played an ODI for India was all the way back in 2023 during the ICC World Cup final, which the Men in Blue lost to Australia.
Since then, he has only represented the national team in T20Is, winning the T20 World Cup earlier this year, and Test cricket.

As for Tests, Bumrah last represented the national team in November 2025 during the home series against South Africa, but despite his presence, India lost that series 2-0.
