Asia Cup 2018: 4 Reasons behind India's success 

#2. The bowling department

Bhuvneshwar Kumar leads the bowling department for India

Since the last 12 months or so, the Indian team has evolved as one of the better bowling sides in world cricket. The bowling pair of Bhuvi-Bumrah has been picking up wickets upfront in the powerplays followed by the spin twins Kuldeep and Chahal.

Bhuvi looked rusty in the first game due to a long gap in international cricket but came in with a bang against Pakistan and Bangladesh. Bumrah and the leggies have done pretty well.

In absence of Hardik, Kedar Jadhav did a brilliant job and so did Ravindra Jadeja, who was included in the ODI team after more than a year's gap. Also not to forget the contributions from young Khaleel Ahmed who played against Hong Kong in the first game. The bowling department is proving to be the strength for this Indian team.
