“Better Skilled Bowler At Present Than Bhuvneshwar Kumar”: Ex-India Star On Deepak Chahar | Cricket News

[ad_1] It has been a decade but Bhuvneshwar Kumar's debut in what was the last bilateral series between India and Pakistan, seems like yesterday. The very second delivery of his international career swung away and after pitching viciously tailed in to disturb opener Nasir Jamshed's timber. Bhuvneshwar has not bowled such a delivery in the last two years. Now that he is expected to lead the Indian attack at the T20 World Cup, his own performance at the death overs is under the scanner.There were some good spells but against good teams, that magic or 'X-factor' has been distinctly missing.He has, since that wicket-taking delivery, played 78 T20Is and a career economy rate of 7.02 appears more than decent but what has proved to be the Meerut man's undoing is handling the responsibility duri...

Five Major Concerns For Team India Heading Into The T20 World Cup | Cricket News

[ad_1] Rohit Sharma-led Team India might have won the T20I series against Australia and South Africa on home soil, however, there are some big concerns as the team gears up to take part in the T20 World Cup in Australia.
