Bumrah had missed the Asia Cup 2022 because of a lower back injury. He marked his return in the T20I series against Australia and featured in a couple of T20Is before the same injury returned, resulting in him being sidelined for months.

Initially, the BCCI top bosses remained optimistic of Bumrah’s return but eventually, the news of him missing the T20 World Cup 2022 was confirmed.

“The BCCI Medical team has ruled out Team India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah from the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup squad. The decision was taken following a detailed assessment and in consultation with the specialists.”

“Bumrah, was initially ruled out from the ongoing Mastercard 3-match T20I series against South Africa due to a back injury.”
