“Clear rift in MI dugout”- Fans react as Jasprit Bumrah uploads cryptic story on social media

India’s star pacer Jasprit Bumrah has ignited a frenzy of fan theories with his enigmatic Instagram story which features a quote that proclaims, “Silence is the best answer.”

Some fans have interpreted the quote as a potential response to Hardik Pandya’s return to the Mumbai Indians and his increasing likelihood of being appointed captain. Amidst speculation about Rohit Sharma’s future as captain, Jasprit Bumrah’s cryptic message has added fuel to the fire, suggesting his own interest in the leadership role.

Adding further fuel to the fire, Jasprit Bumrah recently unfollowed the official Twitter and Instagram handles of the Mumbai Indians, increasing speculation about a potential rift between him and the franchise. These actions, coupled with his cryptic Instagram post, have intensified rumors of captaincy aspirations and internal tensions within the team.

There is also another theory which is doing the rounds. Amidst the nation’s collective heartbreak following India’s unexpected loss in the ODI World Cup Final, some fans have interpreted Bumrah’s cryptic post as a reflection of his own disappointment and frustration. India, having remained unbeaten throughout the tournament, suffered a devastating defeat to Australia, leaving the entire country in a state of shock and disbelief.

The true essence of this story will only revealed to us through the passage of time and performance of team India.

South Africa Tests on the horizon

Currently rested for the ongoing T20I series against Australia, Jasprit Bumrah is set to return for the upcoming tour of South Africa.  With his exceptional performance in the World Cup, where he claimed 20 wickets in 11 matches, Jasprit Bumrah’s scintillating form is crucial for India’s aspirations of securing a historic Test series victory in South Africa. While his participation in the Test series is certain, his involvement in the ODI and T20I legs remains unclear.

Given his recent return from injury and the demanding nature of the World Cup, it would be prudent to manage Jasprit Bumrah’s workload and grant him rest during the limited-overs matches, especially with the upcoming T20 World Cup looming large.

Bumrah is not happy it seems. Captaincy?

Hardik Pandya came, SKY is also there

When Deepak Chahar gone for 14Cr he laughed and he might have gone for higher price if MI released him instead of Hardik Pandya in that auction
