“It is not that we don’t have good trainers or coaches. Whether the load is too much, whether they are playing too many formats, something needs to be done. That is my priority. You can’t have a Bumrah breaking down 10 days before the World Cup and then who is going to replace him. It is important (to address it),” said the 67-year-old.
