Centurion: An ankle sprain forced India's pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah to go off the field on the third day of the first Test against South Africa, here on Tuesday. Bumrah returned to the field on the stroke of tea.
Bumrah had dismissed skipper Dean Elgar before walking off the field.
He suffered the sprain while bowling the penultimate delivery of the sixth over of the Proteas innings.
On the last step of his follow-up, Bumrah's right ankle twisted and he was seen in considerable pain as he got medical attention.
Bumrah was seen getting his ankle heavily strapped after walking off the field without support.
