BENGALURU: R Vinay Kumar, Sreenath Arvind and Abhimanyu Mithun are the names which come up when one talks of a potent Karnataka pace bowling attack of recent times. The trio was a proven package of skill, swing and pace. Their exit from the state set-up left big shoes to fill. It won’t be out of place to say that the former Ranji Trophy champions have finally unearthed another pace pack which is a force to reckon with.
The emergence of Vidwath Kaverappa and Vyshak Vijaykumar in the 2021-22 season and the resurrection of V Koushik’s career last year augurs well for Karnataka cricket. Last season, they held fort, especially in the absence of the team’s bowling mainstay, Prasidh Krishna.
