"Coming back from the World Cup, he had a slight niggle, which he played through during the World Cup.
So for the first four or five games, it was a gradual build-up for him to get over that niggle.
And I think teams have not taken too many risks against him in certain situations.
So, tactically, the teams have played him differently."

"Coming back from the World Cup, he had a slight niggle, which he played through during the World Cup. So, we gave him adequate rest to come back. So for the first four or five games, it was a gradual build-up for him to get over that niggle. You could see the pace had dropped because of that. But now he is back to his usual pace. Over the last four or five games, he has been good. But obviously, when you are going through something like that, you do lose a little bit of sharpness in execution and all that because you are fighting something else. But I think health-wise he's 100 per cent. And I think teams have not taken too many risks against him in certain situations. They have played him out because we haven't been able to create pressure around him as well in the sense that the other bowlers haven't been able to create that pressure that we needed to. So, tactically, the teams have played him differently." - MI coach Mahela Jayawardene on Jasprit Bumrah.
