Shastri backs Shami, Bumrah & Siraj to shine in England

Mumbai, Apr 27 (UNI) Former India head coach Ravi Shastri believes India’s fit-again pace trio Mohammad Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj will cause problems for the England batters in the five-match series starting in June.
The series will mark the beginning of the new ICC World Test Championship 2025-27 cycle, with India heading into it on the back of white-ball success with their Champions Trophy triumph.
However, their Test side will be eager to bounce back following a disappointing outing in their previous assignment in Australia – a 3-1 series loss in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy that eliminated their hopes of qualifying for the ICC World Test Championship Final at Lord’s.
