The one-day international (ODI) squad to play Sri Lanka in a three-match series this month includes India's speed king Jasprit Bumrah, who has recovered from a back injury, the country's cricket board (BCCI) announced on Tuesday. Due to a back issue that flared up during the home series against South Africa, Bumrah has been out since September and was unable to participate in the Twenty20 World Cup.

Fans were happy with Bumrah's comeback but they were not happy with the timing of the event. Many fans said that he is making a return to cricket so that he can prepare to play for Mumbai Indians. Here's how Indian cricket team fans reacted.
