Need to be careful about injury management: Former fast bowler Irfan Pathan

NEW DELHI: Former India fast bowler Irfan Pathan believes it will be important for the teams to look after their bowlers once they return to the cricket field post the COVID-19 hiatus.

Cricket activities have been suspended since mid-March and players have not been training outside since the lockdown restrictions came into place from March 25.

"Injury management is the most important thing. We will have to focus on all the bowlers. In a squad of 15, every team has four to six bowlers," Pathan said while speaking on Star Sports' show Cricket Connected.

"Be it an IPL team, Indian team or any international or domestic team, we will have to be extremely careful about injury management as our boys have been out of action for a while," he added. (IANS)
