India vs England, 2019: India's probable XI for the 1st Test against England

#5. Fast Bowlers: Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah and Ishant Sharma

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

The pace battery of Bhuvneshwar Kumar,Jasprit Bumrah and Ishant Sharma forms a formidable attack. The South Africa tour showed us that how lethal and potent this pace battery can be.

The biggest weapon which Bhuvneshwar Kumar has is that he can swing the ball both ways with great control which is ideal for English conditions. This makes him a certainty in the starting XI provided he his fully fit.

Ishant Sharma on the other hand is someone who can bowl good,nagging lines consistently. His experience of having previously bowled in England and his county stint with Sussesx will provide much needed experience and consistency to the Indian attack.

Jasprit Bumrah's natural pace,unique arm action,accuracy etc. makes him a match winner. Bumrah will play a key role in deceiving top order batsmen with his skiddy pace, and will look to get the better of the tailenders with his impeccable yorkers.
