We now have dream combination of fast bowlers: Kohli


Team Udayavani, Nov 16, 2019, 7:11 PM IST

Indore: Indian captain Virat Kohli on Saturday termed his fast bowling arsenal as a “dream combination” that can torment any opposition on any kind of surface.

Riding on one of the most hostile fast bowling performances in recent times, India thrashed Bangladesh by an innings and 130 runs inside three days in the first Test.

The pace trio of Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav and Mohammed Shami shared 14 Bangladeshi wickets among them while the two spinners, R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja who took five.

Asked about India’s current fast bowling resources, Kohli reminded that the team is without Jasprit Bumrah, who is undergoing treatment for an injury.

“These guys (fast bowlers) are on top of their game when they bowl, it looks like any pitch is a good pitch. Jasprit is not a part of the attack and when he comes back, it will be one heck of an attack to counter (by opposition teams),” Kohli said at the post-match presentation.

“They can take wickets in every spell. The slip fielders are ready as they know the ball can come any over. This is a dream combination for any captain. Having strong bowlers is the most important thing in any team,” he added.
