Bowlers: Mohammed Shami, Ishant Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah
Every cloud has a silver lining and for the Indian team, the pace attack has served as their 'silver lining' throughout the series. It has been impressive to see the growth in all three bowlers throughout the series.
Ishant has always had the reputation of someone with a lot of promise who can't deliver when it matters. In this series, though he has looked like the fiery pace bowler that he has always been expected to become. With 15 wickets under his belt, he is irreplaceable at this moment.
Bumrah is considered a specialist bowler in the shorter format of the game. But his transition to Test cricket has been impressive. He has put his deep bag of tricks to good use and has consistently picked up important wickets.
Shami was having an inconsistent series before catching fire in the Fourth Test. He ended up picking four wickets in England's second innings and could have proved to be the man of the match if India had managed to chase down the target set by the hosts.
The team management should at no cost tinker with the pace attack at this point in time. After years of searching, they might have finally stumbled upon India's best bowling line-up for the longest format of the game. All three bowlers deserve to retain their place in the team for the fifth and final Test.
