Rachin Ravindra expects Jasprit Bumrah to pose a major challenge for New Zealand in the upcoming two-Test series, beginning in Wellington on November 19.

“Bumrah is a challenge anywhere in the world. Most of us find him very difficult to face. He’s going to enjoy bowling in New Zealand. The seam he’ll be able to get, the bounce and the swing both ways — he’ll be able to extract a lot from the surface. It’s pretty hard to completely negate his bowling because he is a world-class bowler. He’s one of the best of the generation, so hopefully, we can minimise his impact through good decision-making,” Ravindra said during a select media interaction organised by Sony Sports Network on Thursday.
