The top centurion in Tests also lavished praises on Indian pacers Jasprit Bumrah, Akash Deep and Prasidh Krishna.
“Out of the three matches he played, Bumrah picked fifer twice. He has been a consistent performer, with exceptional quality, I will put him right on the top than anyone else.
“Akash Deep I felt was mentally in control when he was bowling, especially in the second match of the series when he bowled Joe Root, that was the turning point of that Test. Not to forget his batting in the final Test where he scored 66 runs, which pumped India up and demoralised England.
“Krishna struggled with his rhythm early in the series, but was a different bowler in the last Test wherein he bowled a lot of wicket-taking deliveries, getting important breakthroughs. He was controlled and disciplined, more in the batter’s face with few verbal exchanges, and I really liked that.”
