NEW DELHI: Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has heaped praise on India’s bowling attack after their comprehensive 280-run victory over Bangladesh in the first Test in Chennai. India's pacers, led by Jasprit Bumrah (4/50), Mohammed Siraj (2/30), and Akash Deep (2/19), outclassed Bangladesh’s batting lineup, dismissing them for a meager 149 in the first innings.
Bumrah’s four-wicket haul and Akash Deep's early breakthroughs, combined with Siraj's consistency, left Bangladesh reeling. The dominant performance has drawn comparisons from Basit, who likened India’s current pace attack to Pakistan’s legendary fast-bowling trio of Wasim Akram, Shoaib Akhtar, and Waqar Younis.
