Bhuvaneshvar Kumar has impressed in a few opportunities he has got to play for the country. Umesh Yadav has regained fitness and Ishant Sharma did well for his side Sunrisers Hyderabad during the just-concluded IPL.
The trio will have a crucial role to play in the favourable conditions in England.
"When it comes to the fast bowling department, there are people who can exploit the conditions. Someone like Bhuvneshwar (Kumar) can swing the ball, there is Umesh (Yadav) who has pace. It's a good department," Dhoni told reporters here today.
"They need to adjust to the new (ODI) rules. It's important how quickly they adjust to the length and bowl in the right areas. We have got the right mix," he added.
The India skipper indicated that the team was free of injuries.
"There is no official report from the physio so it's a good sign."
India are clubbed with Pakistan, South Africa and the West Indies in group B, but it is the match against the arch-rival on June 15 that is most eagerly awaited.
"Both sides are balanced, (Saeed) Ajmal is a mystery bowler, we need to figure him out," Dhoni said.
