“At this point of time, I think India. I think India would be the best bowling side… Australia are pretty close. I think it’s very difficult to judge between Australia and India right now.

He isn’t bothered about the lines and lengths and just comes at you all the time. And then you have Nathan Lyon. He is magic.”

Australia is another team that has got a fiery bowling attack right now. Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins, and Nathan Lyon have incredible talent. In fact, Cummins recently became the most expensive overseas signing in IPL history. However, the former Indian wicket-keeper feels that Virat Kohli’s side has an even better bowling attack.
