In the year 2022, the T20 World Cup is to be organized in Australia in the month of October-November. A total of 11 fast bowlers have been tried in the Indian team since the 2021 World Cup last year, out of which 3 bowlers Harshal Patel, Avesh Khan, and Arshdeep Singh have impressed. These bowlers have made a place in Team India on the basis of their excellent performance in IPL and have also proved themselves when given the opportunity.
Apart from this, Indian senior fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar are seen in the form. But coach R Sridhar, the former fielding coach of the Indian team, has made bold predictions about the Indian pace attack. Talking on cricket.com, Sridhar said – I think it is seen somewhere with us, don't you see, I will talk very straight. I think we have a lot of problems with us, don't we? Look, I will say very simply, I think our top three bowlers will be Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Mohammed Shami. Because if these are three bowlers, you are rich, you have the new ball bowler and you have the death over specialist. Talking about fitness, Bhuvi is in his best shape.
Further, Sridhar said – And we have Shami, who is an expert in making the opposing batsmen struggle with the new ball. So you have Bhuvi, Shami, Ravindra Jadeja, and Hardik Pandya in the form of fifth and sixth bowlers. When it comes to the World Cup, you need such players in the team.
