The Indian bowling attack for the England test series 

 

Ishant

Umesh

Shami

Shardul

Bumrah

Pandya

Ashwin

Jadeja

Kuldeep

 

Does this bowling attack looks like it can take 20 wickets in the tests.

Yes it can, but remember our batters have to deliver as well. The SA series was lost due to the collective failure of batsmen, not bowling. In fact it's easily the worst display of batting from India since the infamous 2002 tour of NZ.

Despite having possibly the best resources ever, India has gone with a mediocre attack. Dog forbid, if Shami was to get injured, the Indian team is going to fall flat like a pack of cards!

They will probably fly in Chahar, Unadkat as replacement and for Siraj they would say few more A tour performances are  needed ,we dont want to rush him in all important overseas test,Chahar and Unadkat are the best available

Shami will get injured at some time.

We should expect that and keep a replacement ready. 

 

They should have kept back Siraj in England even if they did not select him. Make him tour with the team and practice in nets.

With shami and bumrah( right now) being fragile , he would have been handy.

Our bowling attack did well in SA. Having lost test against SA, the onus is on us to show we can win series overseas against good test teams at their home. Hence will like to be attacking and go with 5 specialist bowlers with a point to prove. Draw or lost series shouldn't be the approach. Pick 20 wickets per test. No time pass bowlers in pack of 5.

The selectors have included Bumrah in the squad announced for the first three Test matches but it is doubtful whether he would be fully recovered before that.

 

It is a displaced fracture on the left hand thumb. the operation wasn't a great success," the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) source, aware about the development, said.
