ENG vs IND 2025: Morne Morkel provides injury update on Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj

Morne Morkel, a former South African cricketer, delivered fitness reports on Indian pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, who both had injury scares during the second session. The Indian coach also stated that the visitors had a far better day with the ball, despite the team's struggles with its lines on day two of the fourth Test at Old Trafford in Manchester. England have a 186-run lead, thanks to Joe Root's superb 150 and skipper Ben Stokes' unbeaten 77. India's problems went beyond the scoreboard, as Bumrah appeared to be uncomfortable after only one over with the new ball. He left the pitch and was hobbling when he returned. "I thought the guys responded well this morning, especially Siraj and Bumrah with the ball. And from there, we did our best to generate chances. "We could look like we played better than the first couple of days," Morkel stated in a post-game press conference, as quoted by NDTV Sports. "So, you know, discipline and sticking to those boundaries were important, and I believe we missed that early. And then, getting back to the injuries, regrettably, when we took the second new ball, Bumrah twisted his ankles going down the stairs, and Siraj, I believe, rolled his foot in one of the footholds, but they appear to be well," he said.
