<p>

#1 Indian seam bowling contingent is a force to reckon with

Perhaps, the most complete bowler for India is Bhuvneshwar Kumar and he gave a great account of himself in the first innings when he reduced the hosts for 12 for 3.

The other two fast bowlers came into their own in the second innings and shared the wickets with a superb exhibition of seam and swing bowling.

Bhuvneshwar got the ball to deck around off the surface, Shami troubled the batsmen with his nagging line and length and Jasprit Bumrah's extra pace and the ability to hit the seam make this bowling attack well rounded and a force to be reckoned with.

A big positive for India, a loud statement made.
