           Jasprit Bumrah has undergone a back surgery in Christchurch and the news from New Zealand is that the operation was successful and the cricketer is doing fine. The surgery was done by Dr Rowan Schouten, a noted orthopaedic surgeon attached to the Forte Orthopaedics Hospital in Christchurch.   Sources from New Zealand have confirmed the development stating that Bumrah, who has been out of action since September last year, is doing well and is on way to full recovery. An official of the hospital, however, declined a comment stating that "Any questions regarding Jasprit will be best directed to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)".       Dr Schouten, the hospital website says, "is a New Zealand trained orthopaedic surgeon specialising in the management of adult spinal conditions and hip replacement surgery." As previously reported by this website, he has treated many sportspersons, including cricketers like James Pattinson and Jason Behrendorff besides Jofra Archer.



         It is believed that Dr Schouten's name was recommended to the BCCI by Shane Bond, a former New Zealand pacer who is now a bowling coach of Mumbai Indians, the team that Bumrah plays for in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Bond himself, though refuses to say that the current treatment was his suggestion. During his career, Bond was treated in the Christchurch facility by Schouten's predecessor, Graeme Inglis.        The BCCI is yet to put out a statement but sources in the board say the recovery will take 24 weeks maximum and the pacer should be in a position to hit the nets by August. It may not be possible for him to play in the Asia Cup, likely in September, but there is an air of optimism that Bumrah could be fully ready for the World Cup.
