Former India cricketer Ravi Shastri believes that the pace trio of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj will be quite effective against the England batters in the upcoming 5-match Test series starting in June.While Bumrah and Shami faced injury setbacks during the Border-Gavaskar series, Siraj was dropped from India’s squad for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.However, Siraj made an impressive comeback, picking up 12 wickets in 8 matches for the Gujarat Titans in the ongoing IPL season.
Bumrah and Shami both have also recovered from their injuries so this is nothing short of a major boost for the Indian team.“I think with Siraj, Jasprit and Mohammed Shami, these three, if they are fully fit, they will give England heaps of problems,” Shastri said on the ICC Review.“It’s a quality, top-class pace attack when you get these three fit.
And what I like about Siraj, I’m glad he was hurt after being put out, not in the side for the Champions Trophy. That’s what you want,” Shastri added.“For him to go back to the drawing board and come back the way he has, there’s a spring in his stride, the pace is up there, and he means business game after game.
And that is perfect from India’s point of view with England coming up,” Shastri further said.The 5-match Test series between India and England will kick-off the ICC World Test Championship cycle for 2025-27.The Men in Blue will be looking to bounce back from the 3-1 defeat handed to them by Australia in the Border-Gavaskar series back in January.
The defeat saw their hopes of reaching the WTC final for a third consecutive time get crushed. The post ‘He means business..
