Bowling has been the concern for India from a long time now. However in Indian conditions that will suit spinners more, MS Dhoni and selection committee will bank on spinners to take wickets. Recently concluded series against Australia, India have used Ashish Nehra and Jasprit Bumrah’s combination and both have performed well and it is possible that both will get a nod ahead of out of form pacer Umesh Yadav and injured pacer Mohammad Shami. For third seamers spot, there are many competitions but as Indian selectors have selected Bhuvneshwar Kumar for the Sri Lanka series, it is clear that he will play a part in the T20 World Cup of 2016.
As far as spinners are concerned, selectors may think about inclusion of a leg-spinner but it is always interesting to see that they will drop in-form off-spinner Harbhajan Singh or not and include Amit Mishra or Piyush Chawla.
Possible bowlers: R Ashwin, Harbhajan Singh, Ashish Nehra, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
