India vs Bangladesh : Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah are arguably the best batter and bowler in the world. To see the both compete against each other is a treat. During a net session on Monday ahead of the first Test versus Bangladesh at Chepauk in Chennai, Bumrah was bowling to Kohli in the nets. As per social media reports, Bumrah cleaned-up Kohli twice in the session. If it is true, then it is no mean feat - to dismiss the batting legend twice in one session. It would be interesting to see if pacers would get any purchase at the iconic Chepauk, which traditionally assists spinners.
Kohli's form would be key for India, who play five a Tests at home before they head to Australia for the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
