    India's chances of ending a 15-year drought in the T20 World Cup suffered a massive blow on Thursday as their key spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has reportedly been ruled out of the mega tournament due to a back stress fracture. 

    Jasprit Burah skipped the first T20I against South Africa in Thiruvananthapuram as skipper Rohit Sharma informed during the toss that the pacer had some niggles and didn't want to risk him looking at the upcoming tournament. But he now ends up being ruled out of the World Cup. 

    A BCCI official told PTI, "Bumrah is not going to play the World T20 for sure. He has a serious back condition. It's a stress fracture and he could be out for a period of six months."

    Jasprit Bumrah last played two T20s against Australia and didn't travel with the team for the match against South Africa. Despite the adequate rest given by management to the pacer, his injury has come as a big negative as far as managing his workload is concerned. 

    The 29-year-old was given rest for the home series against South Africa after IPL. He was also rested from Ireland and West Indies tour, after which he caught a back injury forcing him to be ruled out of the Asia Cup 2022. And now, after featuring against Australia, once again missed out against South Africa and the World Cup.
