The newly elected President of BCCI and former Indian Cricket Roger Binny raise his serious concern about the Indian player’s meeting with frequent injuries in a shorter span. He is keen to find out the root causes of the same. He raised this issue during his first media meeting as a new President of BCCI.
The Indian side is facing troubles with the injuries of their main pace bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah and Deepak Chahar just ahead of the T20 World cup.
Being a fast bowler and served in many matches for the country in the past, Roger Binny knows the body structure of the seamer and how to be safe from frequent injuries.
We are facing the injury of Jasprit Bumrah, and due to this our T20World cup plan has failed terribly. We need to discuss the injuries of our players, especially fast bowlers. We will look for improvement and see to it that injuries of players will be reduced. We need to sit to think about the root causes of this issue. We have the best breed of Physiotherapists, Trainers, Coaches, and other support staff, still why we are facing this issue with our players?
