Irfan Pathan backs Akash Deep as Bumrah's replacement for 2nd Test
Former India cricketer Irfan Pathan backed India pacer Akash Deep as a replacement for Jasprit Bumrah in India's second Test against England. "Akash...seems to be getting into his rhythm. I feel that he is the Mohammad Shami mould type of bowler," he said. Irfan added that Akash's straight seam deliveries could pose a challenge for the England batters.
