Back to his incisive best, Jasprit Bumrah on Friday brushed aside the chatter around his workload management insisting that he “tries to take care of his body” and said those “questions were not my questions”.
On a dry pitch that prompted India to pick four spinners for the first time since 2012, it was Bumrah who grabbed 5-27, his only third fifer at home, and 16th overall, as South Africa folded for 159 in just 55 overs on the opening day.

“I try to give my best in whichever format I play. These questions are not my questions; I will not answer them. I try to play as much as I can. I try to take care of my body,” Bumrah said at the press conference.
“I try to give my best in each and every format... Rest, question-answer sessions — whoever wants to play, they can play. I’m happy as far as I’m able to contribute and try to learn new things,” he added.
