IPL 2026: Mental Fatigue, A Big Reason In Bumrah's Struggle This Season, Says Shastri
“Bumrah has entered this IPL off the back of a heavy workload with the Indian team over the last 12 months. His struggles are not just physical. Mental fatigue is a big reason. Mumbai Indians need to look after him. Over the next two years, there is a packed schedule, multiple Test series, and the 50-over World Cup are coming up. So, his fitness and workload will have to be managed very carefully,” Shastri said on JioHotstar.
Bumrah’s numbers this season show the concern. One of the most dependable bowlers in world cricket, he has gone through his most difficult IPL season with just three wickets in 10 matches. He has been one of MI’s most economical options and has been tight. He has held onto quite a lot of balls but just hasn’t taken the wickets. A worrying period saw him go five games without a single breakthrough, a rare barren spell for a bowler of his class.
