Jasprit Bumrah leaves SCG in training gear, reportedly headed for scans | Cricket News

Jasprit Bumrah has left Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) in training gears and has headed to the hospital for the scans, the broadcasters has said.
TV visuals showed Bumrah leaving the dressing room and then the stadium. He hasn’t been on field after bowling just one over post lunch. Bumrah has picked up two wickets in this Test.
“He just bowled that one over after lunch and at the point he decided to leave the ground,” Adam Gilchr said on Fox Cricket.
“It’s such a shame and the body language and lack of enthusiasm and voice from India since that moment, it’s quite obvious something is amiss here. That would be devastating, not just as far as this Test match but the outcome of this series.”
