Indian pacers decorate the series
An innings and 46-run victory over Bangladesh at Eden Gardens yesterday was India’s seventh straight Test win, their best-ever winning streak. The fast bowlers have taken all wickets in the maiden pink-ball Test after taking 14 wickets in the first Test at Indore. It’s only the first time at home India have won a Test without a wicket from their spinners - the last time was in Johannesburg last year, when they played four fast bowlers.
We’re bowling as a unit, seeing men bowling at such a professional manner. They’ve played a lot of cricket in the last 15 months in foreign territory and that’s how they learn. The discipline and the hunger to win…they know they’re arguably the best side in the world. They’ve been that for some time and they know there’s no short cut. Individuals will not win it and they know it.

They do hunt as a pack and they do take pride in others’ performances and that’s the real secret behind the pack. That’s what has given them all the success. We’re an experienced bowling attack and the beauty of the attack is how quickly they adapt to situations.
