Ishant [Sharma], [Mohammed] Shami, or Umesh [Yadav] have been magnificent for India and they still have a lot of cricket in them. As I said earlier, for us to rotate bowlers and make sure each one of them is absolutely fit and raring to go, to be able to bowl 140 kmph is important,” mentioned Arun whereas chatting with the media on Friday.

Mohammed Siraj, Shardul Thakur, T. Natarajan and Navdeep Saini (who although obtained injured through the Test) did properly to assist India return with a exceptional win within the fourth Test on the Gabba.
“I think this (Australia) tour has taken a lot out of the guys because of the spate of injuries that have happened. But in future, when you have seven fast bowlers, willing to play for the country especially the number of Test matches they have got, four against England now and five in England — that’s a lot of Test matches,” added Arun.

Arun mentioned that constructing bowling sources has been occurring for fairly a while and isn’t a brand new improvement. He mentioned that the crew has been increase sources for the previous three years.
“It has not been done right now. We had been planning this for three years. We said we need excellent bench strength because if you need India to be doing well consistently at the international level, you need a pool of bowlers who would be rotated time and gain so that they stay fresh and at any given time, you will be fielding a fresh set of bowlers who are raring to go and are very good at international scene,” mentioned the bowling coach.
“So now we are blessed with the great bench strength. So it is very heartening to know that these guys have come to the party, given the opportunity, gone on and done excellent job. This tour will give them necessary confidence to do well.”

“Anyone who is selected to play for the country is ready and good enough but the challenge would be at the highest level. Consistency is the key. I think all these boys like (Navdeep) Saini or Shardul Thakur or Mohammed Siraj have been in and out of the Indian team in the last 2-3 years and they perfectly understand what it demands to be successful here,” mentioned Arun.
“Also the fact, when you analyse why has the Indian bowling been so successful and if you look at the track record of what Ishant Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami or Umesh Yadav have done, the bottomline would be consistency, they have been absolutely consistent, executing their skill with lot of intent and with consistency. That is going to be key to success.”
