Bumrah a match-winner but India too reliant on him: Murali
India lost the opening ICC T20 World Cup 'Super 12' game to arch-rivals Pakistan by 10 wickets and Murali said that India, barring Bumrah, not having a genuine fast bowler like Pakistan's Shaheen Afridi or Haris Rauf, was a cause for concern. "One thing that has been clear at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021 is that the best teams have strong bowling attacks. Pakistan have been dangerous because of the pace of Haris Rauf and Shaheen Shah Afridi

In the second Test match, England speedster Anderson had to face a 10-ball over from Bumrah. The Indian pacer struck with a barrage of bouncers to Anderson in search of his first wicket of the match. Anderson survived the spell of Bumrah but eventually lost his wicket to Mohammed Shami.

Bumrah crucial for Gabba, can adjust length more easily than others
The right-arm pace bowler, who is suffering from an abdominal strain and is a doubtful starter, is required not just because he is the only pacer left from the battery that won India the Test series last time in Australia in 2018-19.

Bumrah's mind, body set for the bigger tests
