obviously shami

South Africa: South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma believes India’s bowling attack has ample strength and ability to nullify the advantage the hosts’ have ahead of the start of two-match Test series at SuperSport Park on Tuesday.

Despite losing Mohammed Shami to injury, India have the services of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna and Mukesh Kumar in the fast-bowling department, apart from world-class spinners in Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja.

"We understand conditions a lot better so you'd expect us to adapt a lot better but their bowling is quite strong. The fact that they've been able to achieve such success is because of their bowling attack and that kind of nullifies the advantage we have. It's more between the batters and how the batters take on that challenge."
