Can pull my body for another two to three years: Umesh Yadav

, 5 news, 3 views

India fast bowler Umesh Yadav says he can "mostly pull his body for another two to three years" and wants to make a match-winning contribution in the World Test Championship final against New Zealand in June. Umesh has played 48 Tests in a stop-start career and is part of arguably India's best-ever pace attack, which also includes Ishant Sharma, Mohammad Shami and Jasprit Bumrah.

Despite doing well over the last three years, Umesh is not a sure starter in the playing eleven considering the competition which has gotten stiffer with the emergence of Mohammed Siraj.

"I am 33 now and I know that I can mostly pull my body for another two or three years, and there will be some youngsters who will be arriving (to play). I feel this is just healthy, because it ultimately ends up benefiting the team.
