In recent times, the Indian pace battery has been creating some dominance all around the world, especially in the longest format. The team was short of a brilliant pacer every time but, now the conditions have changed a lot in the last 3-4 years with Indian bowlers becoming more potent than ever.

Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav, Ishant Sharma, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar are some of the best ranked fast bowlers in the world and this has helped India do very well in South Africa, England and even win the maiden Test series in Australia. They have recently won their 11th consecutive series at home defeating the Proteas in the second Test at Pune, the match which was won by the fast bowlers.

Add Ravi Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja in the mix with Kuldeep Yadav warming the bench, India’s bowling attack can be termed as the most lethal one in any given conditions. This has led to the former Pakistan captain Ramiz Raja singing praises for the Virat Kohli-led side.

Ramiz has come out with a statement terming the Indian bowling attack the best in the world. India defeated South Africa in their home in the first two Tests of the 3-match series. The team is also no.1 in the ICC Test Championship points table with 200 points from four wins. Umesh Yadav was the pick of the bowlers with 6 wickets in the match in Pune, while the others assisted him well.

On his YouTube channel, former Pakistan batsman said, “I believe that one only wins in Test cricket if they are capable of taking 20 wickets and India got the best bowling attack in the world. Because they have covered all bases in spin, pace, behind the wicket, exceptional fielding and solid captaincy.”

India had won the first Test in Vizag by 203 runs while pocketed the Pune Test easily. Virat Kohli slammed his highest Test score of 254*, while Mayank Agarwal hit his second straight century in two matches. Raja was especially praised Shami for his lionhearted bowling effort on dead Indian pitches.

Raja added, “Credit should be given to Mohammed Shami who took wickets on a dead wicket, and South Africa should learn from him the line and length that works in Asian conditions.”
