Rahul is recovering from a thigh injury while Bumrah is coping with a lengthy back injury. Team India are eagerly waiting for their comeback to the national side considering the ODI World Cup 2023.

Meanwhile, the media reports have learned that Bumrah and Rahul are likely to make a comeback in the national squad soon. “With less than 100 days to go for the World Cup in October-November, India has received some positive feedback about the availability of three of their first-choice players, who are currently out injured.
