Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah got his maiden Test call-up for the upcoming series against South Africa on January 5. Bumrah’s selection came as a surprise as the Indian team already has four seamers and a fast bowling all-rounder in the squad. Chairman of selectors MSK Prasad justified Bumrah’s inclusion and reportedly said that there was no doubt in picking Bumrah as he adds variety to the pace attack and the nature of wickets in South Africa will suit his bowling. As South African pitches are expected to be pace-friendly, the selectors have made the right choice to give the talented bowler a break. A good surprise indeed.
