He said in an interview “Its great to have them (Bumrah and Prasidh Krishna) back and see them bowling well. Jasprit is someone we have missed a lot in the past two years he hasnt played much. We will ease him into it slowly. Ireland was a good opportunity to ease him in. Now we have a whole month to build that up before the World Cup. The duos return gives us more options in the pace bowling department,” he said.Even former west indies cricketer Curtly Ambrose was delighted about Bumrahs return and took to twitter to express his excitement.
