Team India were given a major jolt ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup as ace speedster Jasprit Bumrah was ruled out of the marquee event due to an injury.

Former Australia pacer Brett Lee has now released a video, talking about how to avoid injuries as a bowler, and he also talked about how there is no scientific proof that ice-baths work.

He termed ice-baths as "over-rated". "When it comes to icebaths, they are over-rated. There is no scientific evidence in my opinion to prove that they work.

They are great here in India, or subcontinent, to drop your core temperature, but if someone out there wants me to show a paper on icebaths if they can prove it they can flush out nitric acid, bring it on.
