Vijay Shankar hogged the limelight recently when he was named as Bhuvneshwar Kumar's replacement ahead of the 2nd Test between Indian and Sri Lanka due to Bhuvi's marriage. With a staggering first-class batting average of almost 50, Shankar is a solid middle order batsman. The only concern though is that Shankar, for the lack of a better word, bowls at a very comfortable pace.

However, of late he has vastly improved his bowling with the help of Tamil Nadu's bowling coach Lakshmipathy Balaji. "I have improved on my bowling speed. Balaji helped me understand how to make the most of my non-bowling arm and helped me in my run-up. It has helped me immensely," says the rejuvenated all-rounder.
