As the Indian cricket team regroups for a must-win fourth Test in Manchester, star pacer Jasprit Bumrah managed to take a brief, heartwarming break from the action. Bumrah was spotted playing with his young son, Angad, in a park—a precious family moment beautifully captured by his wife and renowned sports presenter, Sanjana Ganesan.
Family Time in England
Fresh off a grueling Test at Lord’s—where Bumrah’s heroics (5/74 & 2/38) were not enough to prevent India’s narrow 22-run defeat—the week leading up to the next match allowed players some downtime. Sanjana, who is in England working for Sony Sports as an official broadcaster, shared the touching photo on Instagram of Bumrah enjoying quality time with their son.
Despite BCCI restrictions on family travel during overseas tours, Sanjana accompanies Bumrah in her professional capacity, allowing their young family to make memories together even in the midst of a high-pressure series.
Bumrah’s Impact So Far
- Wickets: 12 wickets in four innings (two five-fors)
- Average: 21.00
- Strike Rate: 43.33
- Matches Played: 2 out of 3 Tests so far
Bumrah has underlined his value as the spearhead of the attack, but with India trailing 1-2 in the series, the team needs every ounce of his magic in Manchester.
Key Update: Bumrah Set to Play Fourth Test
There’s good news for Indian fans: according to reports from Sky Sports Cricket, the management is not expected to rotate Bumrah out for the fourth Test. He is fit and will likely be available for selection as India look to bounce back at Old Trafford starting July 23.
After missing the second Test for workload management, Bumrah’s return will be crucial as India prepare to go all-out in a must-win game.
In Summary
Whether it’s on the field leading India’s bowling attack or off it cherishing moments with his loved ones, Jasprit Bumrah continues to inspire fans both as a cricketer and a family man. With the series on the line in Manchester, all eyes will be on him as he looks to deliver once again—fuelled by happy moments spent with baby Angad and Sanjana.
