India captain Virat Kohli Monday said he is on the lookout for three more pacers as relentless as the current crop to manage the workload of the attack that played a crucial role in the team's maiden Test series triumph in Australia.
The attack comprising Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Shami, Umesh Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Ishant Sharma has been hailed as India's best ever. Not only in Australia, the fast bowlers had done their job even in England and South Africa but batsmen let them down in the two preceding tours.
"It's important to take care of these guys especially manage workloads, that's going to be our priority going forward. But even more so, finding three more guys who can bowl as fast as and as relentless as these guys," said Kohli in his post-match interaction on Monday.
"We already are in the process of identifying (three pacers), and then keep them ready make them travel with the team, make them understand the importance of Test cricket, what areas to bowl, what the mind-set should be. Because once you create this kind of a culture in the team, you want it to continue."
