Jasprit Bumrah Likely to start Training Soon, BCCI in No Hurry
Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is likely to continue light training over the next 24-48 hours while remaining at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru for rehabilitation and, according to team sources, remains on the recovery path so far. He has been under medical supervision.
Group A: Pakistan, India, New Zealand, Bangladesh.
Group B: Australia, England, South Africa, Afghanistan.
The unavailability of Bumrah is a result of a back injury, and he has been resting since the Sydney Test against Australia.
Recent medical tests have revealed good improvement for him to begin gym work and light bowling.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India is not taking a very careless approach as they do not want him to rush back.
Participation in Champions Trophy Uncertain
The ICC deadline for final squad selection is February 11, but the BCCI may wait before making a final decision on Bumrah's inclusion.
The management is working on back-ups, if he doesn't recover in time. As a precautionary measure, Varun Chakaravarthy has been added to the Indian team that will be facing England in the ODI series currently.
There is still hope for his complete recovery because he is an integral part of India's bowling arsenal.
