Fast bowlers
A plethora of white-ball cricket games in the recent past meant Umesh Yadav looked a little out of depth in the first innings, unable to set his radar correctly. In the second innings, he was back to his old self, hitting better lines to trouble the top order.
Having successfully kept injuries at bay, Mohammed Shami made his comeback to the side in the first Test, but will take his time to get back to top form. He picked up two wickets in the first innings, and followed it up with one more in the second.
The two are likely to keep the other two pacers, Ishant Sharma and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, out of the playing XI.
