Bhubaneswar, Jan. 16 -- Team India's premier speedster Jasprit Bumrah is currently nursing injury that he sustained during the fifth and final Test against Australia earlier this month.

Following the development, reports have been published in some sections of the media that Bumrah has been advised bed rest following the back injury.

The reports claimed that Bumrah, who has swelling in his back due to the injury, was advised to rest at home to allow the muscles to recover and reduce swelling. The report also speculated that Bumrah's return to competitive cricket could take longer than expected.

In response, the 31-year-old speedster called the claims 'fake news', ridiculing the unnamed sources behind the reports.
