As India gears up for potentially their third ICC World Test Championship (WTC) final, concerns rise about the lack of backup seamers in their Test squad. With Bumrah, Shami, and Siraj as the main pacers, the options for backup seamers on overseas tours are limited. As the Duleep Trophy approaches, former bowling coach Bharat Arun highlights the importance of nurturing and giving exposure to potential pacers for the upcoming tours, stressing the need for red-ball overs. With a long list of pacers used by India in recent years, only a handful remain in the system for the 2024-25 season, raising questions about India's preparation for future overseas tours.
