McGrath said owing to his action and workload, Bumrah needs time off from the game given the amount of effort that goes into his bowling. “The last two strides that he takes, he just powers into the crease. Thus, his momentum increases, and that’s where he gets the pace.

“Bumrah needs an off-season because he puts so much into every ball. He needs a break. If he keeps playing, the amount of pressure created given the bowling action, he is bound to get injured,” McGrath said.
