His statements come amid injuries to key pacers, highlighting India's move to strengthen bench strength with promising young fast bowlers.

In a strategic move, India skipper Rohit Sharma highlighted the need to bolster the nation's pace bowling contingent, aiming to match the depth and resilience of their batting lineup.

Sharma's comments were preceded by the untimely setbacks of key pacers Mohammed Shami and Yash Dayal, prompting an earnest effort to cultivate young talent into the main squad.
