R Ashwin picks Jasprit Bumrah over Virat Kohli in all-time India bracket

R Ashwin rated Jasprit Bumrah above Virat Kohli when comparing India's premier fast bowler with the former captain. He eventually selected Sachin Tendulkar over Kapil Dev as his all-time best Indian cricketer. The comments come as Bumrah continues to lead India's pace attack without other frontline options.

In Bumrah's absence, the Indian pace attack delivered a promising performance during the Sri Lanka Test series win. The bowlers maintained pressure despite difficult conditions and opposition tactics. The series victory showed the depth in India's fast bowling resources.

Ashwin's assessment places current players in historical context while acknowledging their contributions to the team's success.
