‘You can’t get a better fast bowling attack’: Sourav Ganguly calls trio of Bumrah, Shami, and Siraj a force to reckon with | Cricket News

Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has lauded the present Indian pace attack of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj called them a a force to reckon with.
“It’s a very strong team. Bumrah is back, which makes the team even stronger. The bowling attack is very good – Shami, Bumrah, Siraj. You can’t get a better fast bowling attack,” Ganguly told Star Sports.
“And the spin, Jadeja, the wr spinner. Top batters. India is a fantastic side, who just have to turn up and play good, determined cricket during the Asia Cup and the World Cup,” he added.
Ganguly also echoed with the current Rohit Sharma on India’s No 4 conundrum saying “One batting slot does not make much of a difference.”

“You know, I started in the middle order in one-day cricket and then went on to open because I was asked to do so Sachin at that time as captain.
“I think it’s the same thing with Sachin. He batted at number 6 till his captain asked him to open, and he became a world-class player.

“India has enormous talent. I keep hearing that we don’t have this, we don’t have that, we have too much, that’s the problem, that you can’t decide.
“See, when you have too many homes to stay, you can’t decide which one is more comfortable for you. If you have one, you know that’s the place I can stay.
“So, I think number 4 is what Rahul and the selectors and Rohit need to do; decide that this is my number 4 and I will continue with him till the World Cup. One batting slot does not make much of a difference.”
