The former fast bowler Geoff Lawson believes the current Indian attack is one the best he has seen in a long time. Further, he feels that they will challenge the Australian batsmen in the four-Test series. He spoke on the Indian bowling unit as well. India's bowling unit has shown the right promise in the recent past and has done a splendid job.

Comparing to the last couple of tours, on a skill-set wise or as per the injury concerns, this time, India has got the decent lineup with the major players being fit enough. Especially, India got no concerns in their bowling section.

"They have got some terrific fast bowlers, as good a group as I've seen for a long time and they've got the spinners that always do the job," Lawson was quoted as saying by reporters. Ishant Sharma's last time out here he got extra bounce. Umesh Yadav bowls freak (deliveries), Mohammed Shami has been swinging it, Bhuvneshwar Kumar swings it as well."

"They are not going to play all four, they are going to play three and maybe one or two spinners," Lawson said. Playing international cricket in the 1980s, Lawson has 180 Test wickets to his name, and he said starting the series in Adelaide will work in India's favour. The first Test (is) in Adelaide, so they got their wish there didn't they, not playing in Brisbane or Perth," he added.

Indians got a good workout in Practice game: Geoff Lawson

Further, he felt Indians have got a decent outing in the practice game . With all the bowlers hitting the turf for over 20 overs each, he feels it would be pretty helpful for them ahead of the first Test.

"They've got four good guys and they've got some extra Pace so that will be a big challenge I'm expecting a really good series." In the only warm-up game against Cricket Australia XI before the Test series, the prime candidates for India's Test attack got a good workout with pacemen Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav and Ishant Sharma all bowling over 20 overs and frontline spinner Ravi Ashwin sending down more than 30."

All in all, it would be interesting to see how things would turn out for the Indian fast bowlers. As Lawson said, India looks pretty good on the paper.
