Bhuvneshwar Kumar has added a touch of pace to his arsenal and now looks unplayable. He played just a single match in the Test series but finished with the side's best figures. He picked up a wicket apiece in the first two ODIs and the onus will be on him to get his side off to the perfect start with the ball.
Jasprit Bumrah was rewarded for a sensational 2017 with a call-up to the Indian squad for the South African tour. He was the pick of the bowlers in the second ODI, sending opener Gunathilaka back to the hut before coming back at the death to dismiss Akila Dananjaya. Bumrah is one of the leading death-bowlers going around and with the big hitters Sri Lanka possess lower down the order, he needs to be on top of his game if India are to restrict the Lankans.
