CWC 2019: Five Indian cricketers and their English equivalents

#3 Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Chris Woakes

India v Australia - ODI Series: Game 5

Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Chris Woakes are two of the best swing bowlers in the world. They debuted as new-ball specialists for their countries. They are the senior-most fast bowlers for their teams and are the leaders of the pack. While they started off as new-ball bowlers, they have improved their death bowling skills in recent times.

In addition to their bowling skills, they are also good batsmen lower down the order. Some of their knocks have helped their teams win games as well. Both of them have scored more runs against Australia than they have against any other team. Incidentally, both of them have picked up 15 wickets each against the Windies in their 50-over careers.

Both of them played their first Test match against Australia. They have also been a part of RCB in their IPL careers.
