Former legendary cricketer, Sunil Gavaskar has showered praises on the Indian pace bowling unit, comprising of pacers like Deepak Chahar, Buvneshwar Kumar, etc. He reserved special praises from the fiery fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah, saying that he has the ability to walk into any team in the world and not just the Indian team.

The 1983 World Cup winner says that India is spoilt with the problem of plenty in the bowling department. During a chat on Star Sports, Sunil Gavaskar said, “There is Bumrah. Don’t forget him. He will walk into any team in the world not just the India team, any team. Then you have Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami…spoilt for choices.”

Deepak Chahralso talked about Deepak Chahar, who has the ability to swing the ball in both directions at a decent pace which make the life of the batsman difficult.

Explaining the same, Sunil Gavaskar said, “He is a terrific swing bowler. He isn’t express but he gets the ball to move at a decent pace which makes it difficult for a batsman. And he has got both the in-swinger and the out-swinger without a noticeable change in action which makes it difficult. So when you have someone like him and have Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the bench after two fine performances in the series, India are blessed as far as riches in bowling are concerned.”
