#3. Bhuvneswar Kumar
Owing to fitness issues, Bhuvneswar was not a regular for his franchise team in IPL 2018. After being rested in the one-off test match against Afghanistan, the team management would hope that he will be fully fit by the start of the series and raring to go. His form and fitness would be crucial for India in the upcoming series, as he is someone who can trouble the opposition with his swing bowling and at the same time, contribute with the bat.
In the ODI series against South Africa and then in IPL, he looked a bit rusty and was not among the wickets. In the recent years, he has been the leader of the pace attack. In this series, he would like to shrug off his rustiness and be among wickets. If India has to succeed in England, Bhuvi needs to be at his absolute best, and for that, the T20Is would be the perfect platform for him to start afresh.
