India captain Virat Kohli and head coach Ravi Shastri were effusive in their praise for pace bowlers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah after the team clinched the five-match One-Day International (ODI) series 4-1 here on Sunday. Bhuvneshwar and Bumrah scalped five wickets each in the four matches they played -- but what struck the most was their performances during the death overs. "The death bowling is tremendous. It is all down to skills. When you have bowlers like these, they bring you back in the final overs," Shastri said after India defeated Australia by seven wickets in the fifth and final ODI.
