Rohit Sharma Shikhar Dhawan
The deadly duo at the top

# Seam bowlers

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Perhaps the most improved bowler over the last year, Bhuvneshwar has added a plethora of tricks to his arsenal and is now a complete bowler across all conditions. He can be brought in to bowl at almost any stage of the game.

He swings the new ball, keeps it tight during the middle overs, and then nails his yorkers at the death, a dream for any captain!

Jasprit Bumrah

India's search for a death bowler finally ended with the emergence of Jasprit Bumrah and the young man has repaid all the faith invested on him by the team management.

Along with Bhuvneshwar, Bumrah has become Kohli's bank in the death overs where the two invariably restrict the scoring by picking up wickets when it matters the most.
