West Indies tri-series 2013: India vs. West Indies - Five Talking Points

2. Bhuvneshwar Kumar makes India’s pace battery look good

Kumar picked up two early wickets to energize the Indians, which included the critical scalp of Chris Gayle. This was not the first time that right-handed swing bowler had Gayle in a muddle. His ability to swing the ball both ways is a rare weapon and one is tempted to make the extravagant comparison with James Anderson. He is far from being that good at the moment, but he is surely performing a similar role for India. India missed him against Sri Lanka and it could have been a different game if he was not rested.
