Bumrah’s support cast, Jangoo’s rise: Four key takeaways from India's 2-1 victory against West Indies

India recently clinched a 2-1 ODI series victory against the West Indies during a parallel stretch to the Asian Games, leaving key questions surrounding their pace bowling lineup as preparations continue for the upcoming World Cup in South Africa. Without Jasprit Bumrah leading the attack due to his gold-medal campaign at the Asian Games, India cycled through various fast bowling combinations involving Nitish Kumar Reddy, Prasidh Krishna, Gurnoor Brar, Auqib Nabi, Mohammed Siraj, and Anshul Kamboj across the three fixtures on batting-friendly home pitches.

Meanwhile, West Indies batsman Amir Jangoo enjoyed a standout series in the middle order by posting consecutive half-centuries, including a blistering 114 from 77 deliveries, while captain Shai Hope surpassed Brian Lara in career ODI centuries with stellar knocks of 104 and 162 not out.
