A vital cog in India-s World Cup plans, Bumrah landed awkwardly on his left shoulder while fielding during Sunday-s IPL contest against Delhi Capitals in Mumbai. He did not travel with his MI team-mates on Monday but flew in here separately on Tuesday. MI play against Royal Challengers Bangalore here on Thursday.
Bumrah was seen running along with his team-mates for nearly 20 minutes and he looked in fine fettle. He also participated in a catching drill with Anmol Singh. He took chest-high as well as low catches and threw the balls with ease.
Bumrah, however, did not bowl at the nets. He was seen having a discussion with Zaheer Khan, who is MI-s Director of Cricket Operations, for most part of the net session.
Bumrah also was seen having an animated talk with rival Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli -- also India skipper -- for nearly 15 minutes. Towards the end of the practice session, Bumrah had some jovial time with Paul Chapman, who is Mumbai-s strength and condioning coach. The national team relies heavily on Bumrah, who has earned the reputation of being the world-s best bowler in death overs.
