Team India pacer Jasprit Bumrah poked fun at a fellow teammate for wearing shades after they arrived in the United Kingdom for the five-Test series against England, beginning on June 20 in Headingley. The Indian team and contingency were all smiles as they landed in England for what is expected to be a gruelling series.

Bumrah, who is the pace spearhead, will have a crucial role to play if India are to win their first series in England since 2007. The right-arm speedster put on some lethal bowling displays during the tour of Australia and India will require more of that, especially bereft of batting stalwarts like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.

Watch the below video as Bumrah says:

"Raat mein bande ne chashme pehne hue hain."

It was, though, unclear who the 31-year-old was speaking about:

"A lot will depend on the results of the series" - Gautam Gambhir on managing Jasprit Bumrah's workload

Ahead of the pre-departure press conference, head coach Gautam Gambhir said Bumrah will play only three Tests but which ones he does plays depend on various factors. Gambhir stated, as quoted by ESPN Cricinfo:

"We haven't taken that call, which three games is he going to play. We are going to have a discussion with him and depending on the series as well. A lot will depend on the results of the series, where the series is heading. That is something which I am sure he is very well aware of as well and that is important."
