Not really. It is just one single test FFS.
The guy is resilient. He's come back from a serious injury before as well. This is a hiccup not downhill.

Have India failed to capitalize on Bumrah?

It's only his 3rd Test of the series, but it's been a tough series on tough wickets, whenever he comes back he surely won't be worked as hard, I hope for his sake that he can bounce back from this

it's more than just that isn't it?
Bond (MI coach for years) reckons he is one injury away from Test retirement, he is at an arrangement where he plays 3 out of 5 major matches and cannot bowl more than a 4-5 over spell, It definitely feels like he's not physically in a spot where he can handle any other injuries. Resilience is a thing, but some things are just not sustainable, and that action is one of those things, even with his hyperextension.

I don't think so tbh. The series was set up in such a way that if Bumrah doesn't play this match India really lose the series. They might still lose of course but with Bumrah its a chance to even things up.
Future series would likely not have this kind of set ups and so things should work out better for him.

Moooo
I think the point of the thread is spelling capitalize with a 'z' and not an 's'

Um, yeah and ask why because you think it would be the opposite

The horror
Pfft like Bond would know anything about career ending injuries

Whatever it takes!!!
The real shock news is salty getting active and starting threads the moment India suck while conveniently staying away from current game and series chats till then, when we were doing well.

If I recollect from the 2000s - there were games where McGrath would just have one or no wickets in the entire innings, while Gillespie/Lee/Bichel/Macgill would do the honours and take 3fers or 4fers.
Basically, Bumrah doesnt enjoy that kind of support and it is clearly evident with no Shami and Ashwin around.

40 v top order and 8 v tail enders wouldn't be that unusual for most bowlers would it?

There'd be multiple instances of it for most pacers. If you look at % of tail wkts throughout career, Bumrah sits somewhere in the middle with pacers like Akram, Steyn high. They would have had multiple series like this I'm sure
